La ville du quart d’heure. No, it’s not a place—it’s a new paradigm of urban planning, which translates to “the 15-minute city”.
The concept was created by Carlos Moreno, a Professor and Scientific Director at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, with the aim of reimagining today’s sprawling metropolises as sustainable, communitarian neighborhoods where residents can meet all their needs within a five minute bike ride or a 15-minute stroll.
