In Europe, they had the legacies from their historical settlements; where accessibility was driven by walkability or carts.. It was easy to revive that sustainable culture.. Nevertheless, the building techniques were properly engineered; and eventually survival and sustainable..

Thanks Fouad for the continuous highlight
Fouad Al_Asiri - Urban Planner:

Luxury but not sustainable
Car-dependent & not walkable
Capital & operating cost is high

Affordable & sustainable
Very walkable
