Florence Map
This is a map of a lot of Florence. The Duomo is located near the middle of the map, the Arno river is in the South West corner, the train station- Santa Maria Novella is in the North West section, and the villa is not on this map, but would be located almost due north from the center of the map. I put this map in to illustrate the point I made earlier about the streets being angled and hardly ever straight. There is one section in the center of the city where the streets are more block like and in a more American style. Anyone want to guess why?

Is the part of the city with streets that are more regular (with right angles and all) the part that was laid out by the Romans?
Yep, at least that's what I've been told.
