FC-01x Future Cities (Self-Paced) - Exercise 1 : "Making the Invisible - Visible"
Uploaded on 2020-06-06 by David Velez
Hello my name is David, I am from Quito, Ecuador and this is a picture of the main street outside my house. In this picture we can see many invisible details like the lack of a garbage system and no signals for public transportation. As an inhabitant from the zone I can tell that there are a lot of stray dogs over the street that sometimes destroy the garbage that you leave outside. I have seen people that hang their garbage in the trees but I think that the best solution is to install a container system to storage the garbage until the truck arrives and took it to the deposit. Another issue that you can see is that there are a lot of cables hanging in the air so it takes out all the natural beauty from the trees and the environment making the place look cheap and old. This street is very busy during the day so the lack of signals can be a little bit confusing, even for me it is difficult to know where the bus is going to stop.
