Extended abstract
Introduction
The citizens of modern cities, while they need a lot of time and speed management, due to the accumulation of population, and therefore the car and traffic jams, face problems in meeting these needs; The aggregation of commercial and service centers in cities, as well as their lack of efficient transportation system (not necessarily up-to-date vehicles), can be one of the main reasons for wasting time and slowing down access; In addition, the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic showed how concentration, aggregation, and accumulation could exacerbate the epidemic and increase the risk of infection; In such a situation, the need for easy access and more efficient placement of uses and functions becomes more and more apparent, and this is the goal that the theory of 15 [20]-minute cities or neighborhoods pursues. Following the abovementioned cases, when we look at the centers of accumulation and aggregation of cities, it turns out that in many of them, this is the central and historical core of the city that bears the burden of hosting the masses of citizens, despite all its potential attractions and high semantic load which is inevitably fragile: areas of cities that have a memory of pedestrian, self-sufficient neighborhoods; From gathering the above cases together, we can find a way by which,
