In today’s age over 55% of the population, which is 4.2 billion people, lives in city centers. This has forced many cities to evolve and build large housing compounds and buildings. But, aside from that, cities are always trying to accommodate people any way they can, while staying close to technological evolutions.

1. Street lane that allows electric cars to charge on the go.

2. “This guy runs a coffee shop out of a Beetle.”

3. Heated bus stations

4. “The bus route in my city has a library in it.”

5. “Luminous road markings in Nantes, France”

6. “This guitar shop that looks like an amplifier”
