City grid morphology

Urban morphology is the study of the form of human settlements and the process of their formation and transformation.

The study seeks to understand the spatial structure and character of a metropolitan area, city, town or village by examining the patterns of its component parts and the process of its development.

This can involve the analysis of physical structures at different scales as well as patterns of movement, land use, ownership or control and occupation.

Typically, analysis of physical form focuses on street pattern, lot pattern and building pattern, sometimes referred to collectively as urban grain.

Come to the edge.

We might fall.

Come to the edge.

It's too high!

COME TO THE EDGE! And they came, and he pushed, and they flew.

- Christopher LOGUE English poet (1926- )
