Monocle: 20 Most livable cities
This will be the great image on he cover of the next issue of Monocle. The July/August issue will also bring the 2008 edition of 20 Most Livable Cities index which was carefully crafted by the good guys at Monocle.
Correspondents were dispatched worldwide to assess the cities. The entire issue is devoted to the concerns, forces, people and policies that make our cities work.
Here’s the final list (found at the nice Copenhagen Cycle Chic since Monocle’s article is not up yet):
1. Copenhagen
2. Munich
3. Tokyo // 4. Zürich // 5. Helsinki // 6. Vienna // 7. Stockholm // 8. Vancouver // 9. Melbourne // 10. Paris // 11.Sydney // 12. Honolulu // 13. Madrid // 14. Berlin // 15. Barcelona // 16. Montréal // 17. Fukuoka // 18. Amsterdam // 19. Minneapolis // 20. Kyoto.
Can’t wait to read the whole article / magazine.
Update: very good news! Lisbon is number 24 on the list! Here’s a pdf of the article.

Et Lisbonne ne figure pas dans le classement? Pour moi elle est dans le top 10!
Pour moi aussi!
Hi Andre
Just wanted to send you a link to an article about this over at NowPublic:
http://www.nowpublic.com/world/vancouver-and-montreal-among-top-25-cities-world
There is a huge repository of photos from the cities on the list and you can submit your own from Lisbon or from travels to other parts of the world. I have taken quite a few of the snaps they have of Copenhagen in there.
Kind regards,
Casper
Looking forward to the new issue. It’s interesting, when you cross reference Monocle’s pick and that of the latest business week, you see some similarities

I would add Chicago to the list after reading Fast Companies latest issue on Fast Cities. An interesting article: http://www.fastcompany.com/cities/2008/index.html
