The latest installment of Audi’s Urban Future Initiative saw a presentation of urban planning ideas by Höweler+Yoon Architecture. The Boston based firm won a competition among firms last year with its vision of a new multimode transportation corridor for the northeast US, the sprawl from Boston to Washington abbreviated as “Boswash.” That corridor contains some 53 million people and one-third of the country’s gross domestic product. In the so called Shareway, high speed rail, autos and bicycles (giant futuristic bicycles, to judge from the drawings) would be bundled together.
