The accessibility to transportation may bring about visions of a sprawling metropolis. So Ng worked to blend city and country: "The major goal of the project was to urbanize the suburbia asphalt, producing a condition that is not so urban and not so suburban." As a result, Transcity's density remains lower than Manhattan or even Hong Kong's even though transportation is just as accessible.
