    By Simone d'Antonio
    Ad-Hoc Expert Residents of the Future

     

    Across Europe, the conversation around the night-time economy has traditionally focused on major cities and metropolitan areas, which have recognized the value of night-time activities for sustainable urban growth. Economic and cultural vibrancy, extended services (such as public transport, libraries and even nurseries), contrast to noise pollution, safety and use of public spaces in nocturnal hours are some of the main themes targeted by night policies designed to support urban life after dark.
