Sorry if this sounds too much like /c/urbanism but Mexico City has to be one of the most poorly designed cities on Earth and I fucking hate it.
It was built upon the ruins of Tenochtitlan, which was built in the middle of a lake. Mexico City was created when that indigenous city was raised to the ground by white colonizers and they proceeded to essentially drain the lake to build a car centric city in and around the ruins of what once was a city comparable to Venice.
Like I guess I’m glad that homeless people are doing marginally better there than in the USA but that entire city shouldn’t exist. It’s not a population or resource issue, it’s an issue of, the city is built on top of a lake that should really be brought back. I’m not advocating tearing down all the city but a good part of it should be leveled so that nature can return.
Save the axolotl!
