Timeline as a River
Reading this article on the history of suburbs in America, I came across this note:
This timeline is not meant to be definitive. There are no clean breaks in history. Thus the timeline is depicted as a meandering river to indicate the continuous flow of events. The dates show stops along the way where the river course shifts, implying a directional change in history.A sucker for all things ecological, I immediately stopped reading and started contemplating this idea. On the following page of the article is the chart on the left.
