- Henri Lefebvre, The Right to the City — In brief, the right to the city is the right to the production of a city. The labor of a worker is the source of most of the value of a commodity that is expropriated by the owner. The worker, therefore, has a right to benefit from that value denied to them. In the same way, the urban citizen produces and reproduces the city through their own daily actions. However, the the city is expropriated from the urbanite by the rich and the state. The right to the city is therefore the right to appropriate the city by and for those who make and remake it.

Looks nice. Will be a lot less nice in winter when the leaves fall, though.
Not really, as someone that lives in an urban area with far more trees than this its pretty easily managed by leaf vacuum trucks. You just lead blow and rake them into a line on the side of the road and the truck comes by with a vacuum on the back to collect them for composting. Do this for like a month max and it's fine.
Wasn't thinking about leaf management. When the leaves fall it leaves you with naked and grey trees. Couple it with the classic overcast weather in Germany during winter and everything turns monochrome.
Yeah but the rest of the time it's green. And it's not like you couldn't plant some evergreens along side to give some winter colors.
