    • (Heike) Is it still the current planning style today?
    • (Ellen) Does it still have impact on the city and its periphery?
    • (Aycim) Was it applied ?
    • (Itziar) One part of Madrid (east part) was planned in this style.
    • (Itziar) The case study is basically about urban and landscape planning.
    • (Heike) Case study title should be edited.
    • (Ellen) Has Madrid developed very fast? Has the landscape been destroyed?
