#WSJ #FutureOfCities - Наука та технологія
I thought "after covid-19" meant finding the cure/vaccine. This is more like the future of cities if we can't find a cure/vaccine.
I’ll never get a day job inside an office building again. One of the few good things this pandemic has brought.
I see it as more of way to prevent such diseases from ever reaching power like Covid-19 has
@@latenightthinker4737 if such diseases are spread on a yearly basis, it's not nature at fault rather countries fighting bio warfare. if so, any prevention will not gonna help. If it's the other case, from history it would be in few decades to centuries. Why would any businessman or politician invest in something like that?
There's already a Chinese vaccine that's starting to be publicized. Right now, it's prioritized for medical staff. People make "reservations"
Exactly, this sounds like a dystopia.
This is so depressing. I miss the nightlife in my city. The theater, the comedy shows, the dating life. This sucks.
That will come back, but not this year, the situation isn't good yet
@@adiabd1 How so? What needs to change for thing to be "good?"
@@adiabd1 Says who? The pharmaceutical companies trying scare monger people into taking their vaccines?
No kidding. Is it wrong to think we are blowing the entire situation out of proportion? Its rarely fatal after all....are we really going to continue to keep everything closed in fear?
@@anontheshade You're not wrong.
This sounds depressing. I'm fighting to get off of screens, not have my whole life revolve around my phone. This feels like a future for the privileged. I love the idea of cities and suburbs becoming more walkable though.
Rachel Olsen. Agree with you. But there will be more sprawl in USA. We Americans don’t really know “walkable” because we don’t travel abroad. Plus we are paranoid and overdo things. I predict more depressing sprawl.
It's only us privileged people who think that tech is only for the privileged. Having grown up in SE Asia, I saw how the accessibility of smart phones have radically empowered a generation of people - especially women. There are people in this world who have access to the internet over a smart phone even though they are unable to afford to live in their own home. Let that sink in. I get that people are worried about the negative effects of digital lifestyles, but it seems too 'zero sum' thinking to let that dictate whether or not we power through with tech innovation and solutions. Not sure if you were making that point, but this is what came to mind reading some of these top comments.
When in history has the future not favored the privileged?
I feel you
Hannah I think the negativity incurred in globalised "envy" produced by Internet access is the culprit behind much misery in the world. Western lifestyles and values are promoted as ideals through thinly veiled advertising when they're only idealistic and utopian to those foolish enough to believe the Western hype. Our Western societies and financial underpinning of the middle class dream have been collapsing for a decade and this pandemic has pulled the wool from many people eyes revealing the dystopian nature of our ideal Western world. It's odd that those unable to live in their own home can access the Internet to bathe in the promised world of prosperity the Westernisation of their country promises. It's a lie. As the middle class proliferates the poor become poorer but poverty, as previously defined, is solved, but a new poverty emerges to replace it, perhaps worse than the prior one. I'm afraid technology isn't the panacea for all that ails the world.
I feel like perhaps this perspective is very limited to white collar workers. Blue, black and grey collar workers still have to go to workplaces and work in possibly covid infected environments.
Great point.
In the future, there will be only white-collar jobs left so your point makes no sense at all.
Is there such thing as black and grey collar?
She addresses that from 3:56 - 4:39
She literally discussed that in the video, perhaps you should actually listen to the video, before writing a comment.
The 15 min city is already in my country Singapore since my birth.
true lol
You don't know how jealous I am
Fun fact in the USSR a city block was supposed to have everything for the week day and that city block was one building.
@@a-10wartaboo77 they honestly took everything too far
more like the entire country
Too tech focused and too many “smart” gadgets, not enough actual problems being solved.
Im curious, what other problems need to be solved?
If a "smart" gadget is not enough to fix ignorance, then what is the alternative?
Human is the actual problem. Lets fix the human
They already solved a lot of them: conference room booking, flexible commute, retail real estate cost reduction, urban planning, etc. Nothing new here.
Titus-Armand Napirlica That's what you get from those entrenched in that world. Simplicity means technological solutions not something that's free. It's like green power where, just like water comes from the sky, electricity generation now does, but it's atrociously expensive because of the technology seeking instantaneous rewards compared to water infrastructure that's costed for decades of use. Too many youngsters still believe technology and science will secure our futures with more services they'll charge for skimming off micro payments and patent royalties instead of actually physically working for a living.
I think cities will collapse and thereby return to communities which these coffee shop latte drinking cereal bar hippies have decimated for their own ego fulfilment. Imagine cities with identities beyond consumer blandness and bijoux gentrification. They'll be places to visit and enjoy. No more banal creative types, technology gurus, and software developers defining spaces that only they can afford. Imagine cafes where all generations congregate and old and new ideas merge giving a more vibrant connected set of problem solving skills suited to all generations benefitting all financially and emotionally. Maybe I'm being far too optimistic.
this seems like an extreme example. I do see changes but not to this level
Like she said, this is the future, like when we imagined how we look the future before CoVid-19
This is just their personal fetish. Of course most people aren't gonna put up with that kind of a future. They will promote literally everything that makes money for corporations and help them track every individual on the planet in the name of safety against imagined future pandemics.
I disagree. We're already there. My company was already thinking about many of these strategies in February. I worked in our tech dept at the time and our department was pushing for booking desk solutions, open office concepts, and smaller terrestrial footprint. We were trying to change the culture around so people could start working from home more often. Mind you, I don't work in San Francisco or at a tech start-up. We are however tech-driven and the leaders of an otherwise mom-poppish home health care industry. Obviously, this doesn't apply to every city and to every type of work. Some places may not even be there in 5 years. Still, we were heading in the direction pre-COVID and since COVID, I've seen an acceleration of most of this. Amazon's transformation of Whole Foods and supermarkets using contactless payment solutions and the push for smart cities to be built have been all heading in this direction for the past 5 years. It just took COVID for companies and people alike to wake up.
that depends on your type of work, since a lot of ppl is already working from home
I am real estate agent and for me to use the office i have book it through an app called calendly We only get 1-2 hours to do what we need to do then we have to leave.

thanks lisa
what if we just tried to exercise more, eat better, get enough sleep, stop smoking, stop drinking, and reduce stress?
haha imagine if one media outlet talked about that
THIS
They would be blasted as fake news
Imagine this lockdown is doing the opposite.and the constant fear porn from msm is causing too much distress n distrust.so sad
exactly
Meh. Seems like technofetish wishful thinking to me. The whole reason people like living in the city is the spontaneity and convenience. No one wants every move they make being scheduled and mediated through their stupid phone all day. We'll have to put up with a certain amount of inconvenience for a while but I'm not at all convinced that living in the city is going to fundamentally permanently and significantly change.
Also, there is no exodus of regular people from the cities to buy houses in the suburbs. The vast majority of the people doing that are wealthy people who were already seriously considering moving and had enough money lying around for a six-figure down payment and/or who can afford to keep two residences.
Another thing: How is it that in her imaginary scenario, she has to book desk space at work and book a time slot to try on clothes but she can just plop down and camp in someone's coffee shop for a couple of hours to do her work whenever she feels like it?
Finally, I keep hearing this "15-minute city" concept as if this is a new idea. Again, the whole point of living in the city has always been to live in a place that allows you to get to all of your ordinary daily errands within a short (15 or 20 minutes) walk, bike or transit trip. Why are people talking about this as if it's a new invention?
Yeah this video sounds like it’s made by someone who doesn’t live in a city
You complain it's "technofetish wishful thinking" while commenting on UA-cam. Ironic, surely.
@@joythought Perhaps you're just so clever that I don't understand the point you're making. In what way is it "ironic"? How does my writing a comment about a UA-cam video conflict with or contradict my lack of enthusiasm for the prospect of needing to pull my phone out and deal with yet more login credentials and user interfaces to complete tasks that are normally simple and spontaneous? Was there some point at which we were all writing our UA-cam comments on postcards and mailing them in? No? So where's the irony?
tltinatl isn’t more convenient to just order things from your phone instead of having to deal with traffic, having the need to have cash the whole time, dealing with inconsiderate morons and a bunch of other dumb stuff? I’d rather use my phone for everything instead of relying on other people and the way things use to be before covid. If passwords are too much of a hassle for you, then just download an app or google the solution.
Monkeyman because we’re on our phone enough. Most people I know are getting sick of there phones.
The 15 minute city already exists in Japan
I don't see this happening in the long term for the very simple reason that the vast majority of people would hate this kind of isolation dominating their day to day lives. And if most employees don't want to work this way, most companies will not cater to this style.
Yes, I've noticed a lot of companies asking "After COVID we will need you in the office, will you be fine with the commute?"
In my opinion, only developed countries who can possibly afford to shift quickly from the usual habit into the new one. For developing countries, it seems pretty hard to generate a change in such a short time. Even before the outbreak, the distinction between developed and developing countries is far enough
Things are always difficult to predict, especially the future.
@Josh R Yep soon there will be a law requiring you to have a "human interaction" permit. Checkpoints on every street corner. You get the idea.
Something ugly is going to happen right when 2021 starts and the big meme on the internet is going to be that:
"2021 is already worse than 2020!" .
oh god
Ouch
Or maybe the last day of 2020 will be the beginning of a ww3.. that'll be a great season finally..
Good call
i think something ugly is gonna happen a lot sooner than that.
I have to add to the comments that this video is very short-sighted in its view of the “future”. The evidence towards this is scant, in that we only hear from one person. There are far too many things dependent on technology, especially that of smartphones that leave many people behind, and will only exacerbate inequalities (yes, I appreciate that these inequalities are mentioned in the video, but it’s quickly dismissed for more talk about more stuff to do on the phone).
It is just a well made pretty video. Touchless tech will increase. Wearing masks. Namasthe in stead of hand shake. Other than that everything will be same. Crowded cities, busy roads will be back in few months. Already so in many parts of the world even while covid attributed deaths are significant.
@@indieboy1033 No masks
I live in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. It seems like we are very close to this lifestyle already
Come visit me in Ikebukuro. lol
*15 min city: welcome to Europe!*
I wish we had that in the US.
High density and small size.
@@maggiejetson7904 sounds awful
not really though, it depends on which countries, which cities/regions in these specific countries bc you still hvae to go downtown for most things: certain shops, legal matters, parcs, certain social services and certain medical services are only available in downtown/central city areas and im basing this off of my swiss city geneva :/
USA has different zoning laws, when you break it down, they are segregation laws. Europe is much more integrated.
There's one thing missing from this discussion: weather. Many major cities are located farther north which means you have to deal with snow, rain, and cold. Here in Seattle, outdoor everything doesn't work for 9 months of the year on account of the rain.
I was'nt going to comment but I of your viewpoint too. Adding to yours, it's not just cities in the North or NW. The South & SW are miserably hot 3 or 4 months & too cold about 3 months or so. Don't believe the hype, it gets freaking cold in Georgia too. Lows in 20s & highs 50 give or take. This is a delusional idea if some Elite directed Utopia. Everywhere can't be like Hawaii.
We are social creatures I don’t care what you build humans need other humans! ❤️🙏❤️
Diane Nyc I agree. But we need human company not humans focused on their place in the company hierarchies that define social inclusion. A genuine society values everyone and is inclusive regardless of success or ambition.
@@brynleytalbot778 Well said.
What's the point if having open spaces if no one uses it?
blue bird you make me lose faith in humanity.
The point if that everyone can use it and will use it. You won't need a backyard or front lawn anymore
@@latenightthinker4737 You say that like it's a good thing.
@@ninja-981 it is economically, financially, etc. wouldn't say it if it weren't true
@@latenightthinker4737 I like having a backyard and front yard. I love being able to sit outside while not being on the street.
Let this video be a warning! Is THIS really how you want the future to look? Everything is "digitally integrated" i.e. monitored and controlled. Face to face socialization will be strictly prohibited in the name of "public safety." Don't let this happen!
@Ladiekadie Start with noncompliance and spreading awareness.
@@catvideos3249 sounds like you are spreading a heavy dose of COVID with your awareness
I believe its already done to much damage, and it probably will get worse, eventually I think more than 50% of the worlds population have/had Covid-19, and because we have so many infected, I don't think the virus will EVER disappear from the world. (btw this is just my theory so don't get to freaked out lol)
Haha I do a lot od things like this, in my company we reserved meeting rooms even before COVID (when creating a meeting in calendar you name the event, invite the people, choose online or offline and if offline you choose the meeting room), you can view the schedule for each meeting room.. And this week they introduced reserving desks, everyone has their own desk, but you have to reserve a space so not so many people are at work at the same time... Also I regularly shop for clothes on ZOOT it’s an online store where you choose the items you like and your sizes it is then shipped to the store of your choosing and then just come to a physical store which is just a cash register and a couple changing rooms where everything you ordered just waits in a box for you, you try it on pay for the things you like and leave the rest...
Future for the office clerk you mean.
Things like local community services within short distance is already what we have in The Netherlands.
You Americans need to catch up on many things.
Nearly everything!
Says the person from the country that still has a monarchy like it’s 1600.
THIS IS A JOKE
Bro chill out. The only city that has what you’re talking about was called New Amsterdam.
😂😂 sorry for now being from the 1st world country imaooo
With privacy issues, I will be one of those people against using my own personal phone with work related apps.
You can always buy 2 phones
From a business perspective getting workers a work phone or laptop will probably b the main way for them to operate especially when handling sensitive consumer data since no guarantees on security or safety can be made about their worker's own devices.
@@brandonn.1275 you can set up separate business sectors on somebody’s phone, works pretty well for me
I just want to go back to concerts 😭
As a public health person, I appreciate this video in urban design.
This focus on revitalizing city neighborhoods reminds me intensely of Jacob's, "The Death and Life and Great American Cities". She spends a novel amount of time discussing city neighborhoods and their importance in constructing and building well-balanced cities that are strong and healthy.
Mind you, the book is 450 pages long. So start the book with a dedication streak. But it's worth the read, she's a good writer. A New Yorker for many years before she wrote the thing.
Great video!!
We need a video on the "stock options" for executives.
If the only change that comes from this is that roads are taken away from private vehicles and handed over to widened sidewalks, pedestrians and bicycles, that would be a massive positive change already.
(Humans are notorious for forgetting about things soon after they pass...)
What do you mean "future"?🤣 You're just describing what Chinese cities have been like in the past 5 years.
One day soon people will pay big money just to socialize with another human. 😏
Highly underrated comment!
You mean right now. LONG MATCH GROUP!!!
The future is what you want it to be!!! Build the future!
I miss city living more since lockdown. Everything is so far away in the countryside, sure its pretty but its lonely and its slower and it feels dead (especially during a lockdown). Plus the public transport links here are very weak, and as they hold lesser numbers they aren't cleaned as often as city ones are who, because of higher usage, agencies are more keen to prove they're maintaining. Plus I miss the culture, the access to more options of stimuli.
Everyone talks about how to design a city and no one talks about how coronavirus has started and how to avoid this to happen again.
Once the pandemic ends there will be new emerging markets. You don’t think people will be dying to go back to malls or movie theaters or amusement parks and get back to socialization? Look around already people are willing to break social distancing guidelines just to hangout with others.
2023
Phone tells you how to walk
Looking at the design of our cities is so important and I respect the work you have presented, the main area of concern was your layout and scope, the business district, entertainment and retail look slightly large for the residential area it supports. I think it would be more economical if you placed your business district, retail and entertainment in the center and placed the residential area around that so that people travel in and around as opposed to having to cross districts.
Well you missed me, I want to live in the peaceful countryside in the future.
On a positive note open office spaces might be going away/reduced which is good for the people who hate open office spaces.
Will we have to be outdoors at -20 grades and 1 ft of snow?
While your 'observations' make for endearing speculations, I feel this is a desperate attempt to market this particular brand of work culture. I mean let's be honest, a lot of us working as consultants in the development sector while pursuing doctorates already follow and are part of a similar work culture wherein we needn't have to visit the office physically, but we do have to travel a lot for fieldwork, conferences and related activities and have the freedom to work from home, or a cafe or a bistro, basically anywhere with a good internet connection. This is also a very impractical model for the agrarian sector and agricultural workers, construction workers et al (basically everyone who does not hold a blue collar job). If your speculations didn't have an extrapolating tendency, I might have found them more interesting * shrug *
No bustling open, marketplaces, no more Cities??? How would they survive? ... A thriving economy is everything to a major CITY! 💥👍💫
This is unlikely. Executives have started to see massive decreases in productivity due to remote work besides an original bounce in productivity right at the beginning. Most are now changing plans to return to normal work by next year.
The obsessing with maintaining an office is seen here. As companies hire remote, the office declines.
The future city is a suburb, where most of us want to live.
Keep HOPE and be Confident
A bright future for introverts 🎉
I think the suburban towns will start developing as a half suburb half urban environment since so many more workers are now going to stay out in the suburbs to work remotely, many of those are going to be future employers and property developers creating more jobs for the suburban folks as well as creating more walking distance shopping/business centers for the suburban residents including apartments and business buildings. Many of these remote workers offsite working in their suburban homes will either negotiate with their company to sponsor opening a satellite office for them to manage and hire new employees from the suburban town or they will have so much time on their schedule and space to be able to start their own side business, some will become successful in them and quit their regular jobs to expand on their own personal business and some will open up a storefront or an office business.
We can make a change by using masks in closed and crowded environment and try to social distance or reduce our social circle for a couple of month. I don't know why people find it so hard? We should also start to be more aware and conscious about our diet. This is way easier than change our cities for now. Cities survived the 1918 Flu pandemic, 1st and 2nd World War. Our generation need to man up. People live and spend their life in their virtual/facebook/instagram/tik tok life but can't handle the real world.
Movie theaters should be banned.
We should ban human interaction and be more like China yeah that's a good idea.
You guys are spectacular. Finding more feaces and trying to market as content
Not a bad concept but I see mixed use hubs being the focal place in the future where people gather around areas with restaurants groceries and businesses all in one highly walkable areas. Like the Domain in Austin. We spread those throughout the city then people will be trying to commute to different areas/micro cities and reduce congestion naturally
Interesting to see. I think the current pandemic will speed up certain trends, such as the percentage of people working remotely, which may help reduce crowded transport networks/infrastructure in many cities
This whole thing sounds stupid. Changing everything instead of actually improving medical research, making better arrangements to catch a possible pandemic level virus (China's failure to react in time is why we are in this in the first place) and overall improving health facilities and access to it to people of all ages is much more important and more practical then changing entire lifestyles . The pandemic will go away the lifestyle change is unnecessary
This shouldn't be the last pandemic we see. Antibiotic resistent bacteria and super viruses are likely going to occur sometimes soon. Being used to this lifestyle means we don't need to shut down the world when it happens. It's also just a much better way to leave, urban sprawl is crazy around the world. This will rebalance house and rent prices.
China’s failure to react in time? Lol. China is not the epic center of the pandemic now.
Thomas Ebert they weren’t talking about where the epicenter is. The epicenter is currently the United States, but the virus originated in China, and their government did a massive two week coverup.
Lord Shaxx What are you even talking about. China told the WHO as soon as they found about the virus. The world knew about corona already 31. December 2019 and the fact that your governments didn’t do anything about it earlier is their fault not chinas
TD_YT first of all, who are “your governments? I live in Canada, not the US. Second of all, it is well known that China downplayed this virus, and even if they told the WHO at that time, they covered it up for weeks before that. Later on they enacted lockdown measures, but it was too late at that point. I agree governments around the world should have done something a lot sooner than March, but China is not innocent.
The study of people living in urban cities is the same type of study they had on increasing horse ownership 100 years ago. They're wrong b/c they're all based on obsolete data. Remote offices, delivery services, online banking and offsite distribution centers are all factors to spread people out, not pile them on top of each other.
I find it absolutely fascinating that her name is Urbi (Latin for City) and she is doing a report on Cities. I can't be the only one.

Touchless buttons, but also everyone shares rentable desk space. Anyone see a problem?
Pericles said everything great flows into the city. Well, this depends upon great governance. Crowded cities can be exciting centers of culture, entertainment and learning, or simply crowded compounds. The recent experience with some leaders not leading makes big cities a big open-ended question. I look to NYC and pray for its renaissance, for everyone's sake. Years ago, the great mayors of NYC, starting with Koch, restored a moribund NY. We shall see...
I will continue to go to mall and buy cloth and restraunt to eat food and continue going to gym thank you
Agreed. The fear mongering is wearing my last nerve.
This sounds like the wec plans.also wat happens if i stay out longer tgan 15 mins?
My work from home I had the best sleep I had in my life
People who work in coffee shops can't work because there are no tables. Productivity is definitely higher at work than at home.
Hey... this video is awesome... but can you share that webinar session with Ar.Nayan Parekh too...
One MAJOR issue with this are zoning laws... Government tells you what you can build in certain areas.
Major cities have survived prior pandemics and epidemics before and thrived afterwards. They will do it again.
4:52 "25,000 US stores could close permanently in 2020." Is that supposed to be a lot? What percentage is that? Absolute numbers give no perspective.
These 15min cities sound like Europe. Everything within 15min walking distance. (Coming from Germany) And for Nightlife and real shopping we also go into the City Centers
Big challenges ahead!
Wrong. People have already discovered that cooking food is by far the cheapest way of eating food. Saving money is imperative, and people will continue to have second thoughts of dining out. Restaurants are a waste of money. Movie watch parties will become a norm on movie platforms. Watching titles together with a chat window open.
Sounds like a wework ad. If SoftBank plays it right, they might just be able to turnaround the company.
What the heck is "footfall"? The principle @ Gensler said she thinks entertainment really needs "footfall". I am a purist when it comes to my spending. I want to see my musicals on Broadway, my blockbusters in a movie theater NOT a dine-in cinema (even though those already exist) and I want to attend a concert around other music lovers. I am not attached to technology in the way they want me to be.
I definitely see an impact on cities but I wonder if anything will change in rural areas.
Vertical farming will screw your local economy.
I have a crystal ball too. This video offered no actionable insight into the future - would anyone want to live in a 'city' like that ?. Note : Chinese & Korean cities seems to be fine (for now) after stamping out COVID cases, the 'Spanish' flu did not really kill cities did it ?
Entertainment and Creative Forces sounds almost dead in the future. The small town/country sides may be where the Entertainment, Parties, etc will thrive if more inclusive/diverse groups migrate there.
Look like uts in Sydney
The book a meeting room part
TODAY I MET ONE OF MY OLD FRIEND
AFTER COVID

whoever came up with this idea, you should be fired. what kind of evil doing is this? we want our old lives back! we want human interaction! none of this is gonna happen. stop adding stress to people. i'm a college student looking forward to the beauty of walking through a bunch of working people at the metro station rushing to get to work. I'm looking forward to seeing people who work in the same building as me and meet them. I'm looking forward to gathering with friends at "our spot" to rewind and socialize. I'm looking forward to meeting my husband IN PERSON. i'm looking forward to enjoying live performances. Stop instilling fear and hopelessness in me. STOP KILLING MY DREAM!!!
in journalism, you have to be careful about what you put out there!!!
Smart cities are now in place/motion in 30 cities in USA. Paid for mike Bloomberg and the ppl there sold by their local governments. Look up Agenda 21 and event 201. Very scary and sad. Research and speak out! My mayor sold us out and no one is talking about it here
Commuting 2 hours everyday just to do a job that can be replicated from home Just doesn’t make sense
This way we will be more dependent on phones... This is too strange🧐
Tents as far as the eye can see!
Contract tracing is a new thing (03:26)
People prefer suburbs and have for decades. Suburbs is where the growth will be, and many people will chose to work from home.
Wow looks like the BBC animation early in August.

Greatttt nice one
I live in a basically post covid world... Or at least it feels like it in Taiwan. 200+ days of no local transmission. You know what's changed? Virtually nothing. Life is the same as it was.
Also, all this no touching thing is just going to weaken our immune systems, this having an opposite effect.
11-7? What a short workday!
I don't think it will change that much it is proven that humans never really change ! We were educated to have our life being like it was before covid
Hi, it might be nice for The cartoon to wear a mask. Also didn’t really mention much about entertainers. Are those jobs going to be obsolete?
There is a big problem: this vision is heavily influcenced by the capability of Covid19. There is a good chance we will see even more infectious & deadly disease. No one know when this day would come, but maybe soon? A city should be designed to handle this without another restructuring.
People just want to be left to get on and live with the joy of relationships

Even if the COVID vaccine is 100% effective, people now know that traditional offices are obsolete, and many people can work efficiently from home.
People also know that a different pandemic with another novel virus may be just around the corner.
College towns and rural areas are the desirable locations of the future.
This is so sad and depressing minus the walkable street and 15 minutes store
I think school will be normal later on cuz some ppl enjoy school and more ppl will work online and school online and full in school will be optional
People don't change that easy, we will be back to normal in notime as soon we get a vacine
this pandemic is really lucrative... Example: Schools, education. I think that Covid is really concerned about long distance education and it will surely pile up good money! :)
