MARKET OCTAVIA LIVING ALLEYS 4 Workshop 1 | June 24, 2020 A LIVING ALLEY is a narrow, pedestrian- oriented street that is designed to focus on livability, instead of parking and traffic. Typically, this means creating a street primarily for pedestrians and bicyclists, as well as space for social uses. It can be considered an “urban living room”.

MARKET OCTAVIA LIVING ALLEYS 8 Workshop 1 | June 24, 2020 THE ORIGIN OF LIVING ALLEYS
WOONERF //
A Dutch term for a “living street”, where the street is seen as a social space rather than a space just for vehicles. The living alleys concept borrows this ethos, creating a vibrant and engaging public space.
