To Illustrate a Point

One of the basic tenets of good design is to respect and maintain well-used paths of travel.
This basic principle of design has not always been followed in Cranbrook's past.  There are places in Cranbrook where walking or cycling linkages have been broken forcing subdivision residents including children to walk along roads with no sidewalks or to now have to walk much further to a destination.  Consideration was given first to the developer not the local residents.


Maybe we are the elephants in the room!


Elephants march through hotel lobby after it was built on their migration trail!   The Mfuwe Lodge in  Zambia happens to have been built next to a mango grove that one family of elephants
have always visited when the fruit ripens. When they returned one year and found the luxury accommodation in the way, they simply walked through the lobby to reach their beloved grove of trees. Wonky Tusk leads the way.
