Fun Wording For Western

Scandicci: from farming village to city; Gheri Simone, Mayor of Scandicci. 8 ^ p. (Part IV)

seems, in conclusion that to transform the Scandicci-dorm in a 'city' was necessary to fill the last great space was left free in the village. As I understand it, the anonymous people like me have never complained about the Scandicci-dorm. Within 500 feet have always had it all: post offices, newsagents, bars, supermarkets, banks, library, restaurants, barber shops, libraries, churches, bus stops, offices of insurance companies, unions, medical, dental offices, cinemas, petrol stations, body shops, mechanics, chemists and many other activities.

This step, now under construction, from a dormitory-Scandicci Scandicci-town has always been accompanied by a great show of cultural themes, the need for cultural renewal, a new culture of openness, attention to pressing problems citizens, and philosophical paths.
early as 1985 went on the Echo of Scandicci (which, after the publication of the letters against New Plan, ceased to exist prematurely) an article (April 11, by Sandro Beruschi) which contained (taken verbatim from a document dated 1983: 'Scandicci, proposals for the city') all the issues that were culturalist bandied about as they are in the following years until today. "Another key point [of NPR] is related to the proposal for a new way of living. Scandicci recovering city as public, in fact, it is clear that 'living' is not deemed to be alone than within the walls of your home, but to fully enjoy the city, its public places that support life 'together' (... ) Final goal of all this, of course, is to promote a better quality of life. "
And who could doubt it?
Two scholars, Roberto Aiazzi and Marco Jaff, from which I would have expected a more concrete, written on page. 143 of their book "Scandicci: from village to city" (1997): "In view of the designers choosing strategic fund was to 'fill up' with a high urban design and articulated the spaces left vacant around the Town Hall, focusing in this place all governmental functions and quality of the city. "
And after several explanations, the authors add (p. 144-145):
"are indicated six conversions and struck as many 'key words' of undoubted charm and efficiency that we report in full [I will mention a]: Scandicci promotes the development of flat (...) (...) Scandicci Scandicci becomes city offers a new way of living in public city (...) (...) Scandicci Scandicci city of culture and entertainment (...) Scandicci city of women, children and elderly. "
too kind!
