I haven't reviewed property values or commercial receipts in the #Spui #pedestrian zone of #TheHague but signs point to a thriving #business district that could work very well in many other cities.

Photos show a yellow emergency vehicle that has easily entered the walking zone and another photo shows one of many active pedestrian business streets in #Spuiplein.
