Just like Rubber

Looking at the town plan of Canberra it indicates high levels of controlled planning. The formal circular grid shows the heir achy of the Capital and gives off the feeling of 'over done' from a planning perspective. Overall Canberra isn't a very inviting place to visit, it could very well be because of this nature.

Was this a ploy to demonstrate control on the behalf of the parliament?

_Just a thought:  if the town plan was 'flexible' in that the strict structure of the city was more like a rubber band, would it make this city more appealing?
