That's not true. Man doesn't design the environment that the cities are built on though he can alter it. Also most cities, at least in Britain, haven't been designed but have gradually grown, developed, redeveloped and been built upon. Of course that is still a kind of design but when you design a place like that, with the whole structure planned out with no influence from nature, no countryside surrounding it, and by losing the more natural growth you lose the humaness of the place, it would seem very cold and artificial. And also if they did do make them there's no way they would like that. They would be a lot cheaper and shitty than that, especially knowing Britain and how it does things like this for example the post war rebuilding in the 60s when loads of shitty high rise blocks of flats were built.
