Parand City


The new town of Parand is situated 10 km west from Robat Karim (situated 35 km southwest from Tehran) on the way to Saveh and it has about 7000 students in islamic azad university . The town is intended to provide residence for the staffs of Imam Khomeini International Airport, create a balance in the settlement pattern of Tehran, establish an appropriate environment to draw in the extra population of Tehran and offer an alternative to unsystematic settlements. Parand is expected to accommodate 100,000 citizens across 1,467 hectares.

It is divided into a number of areas namely an urban texture, greenery, town services, regional services and industrial district. These areas are planned to develop in 3 stages.

Parand is a well-planned town which responds to the community’s needs. It aims to host low-income families (laborers’ and employees’ housing cooperatives) by providing low-priced residential units with bank loans there by attracting various classes of people.

Parand is also an Iranian name. It means natural silk.

lmao what's wrong with Ariz and Israel?
I don't mind the lack of greenery. I grew up in Shiraz and shiraz was pretty dry. Plus, I'm sure they will add a lot of green space with time.

yes that's true, for now it looks like Ramallah, Palestina but hopefully within 10 years it will be something nice :)

I mean its an unsustainable method of housing. Its low density and just plonked in the desert and encourages a lack of community and car dependency that is the scourge of the US. When petrol becomes less affordable in years to come people living here would have to walk quite far in scorching direct sunlight to get to a bus or tram stop, never mind how are they going to do the shopping. Building new blocks of flats 4 or more stories high is fine but I dont like single story villas. :eek:hno:

^^ actually they are not going to build a F 1 race track they are going for F-2 but they can upgrade to F1 anytime smart move if you ask me.
could this be an F1 circut?it's definitly not a normal road
If that's the F1/F2 track, the cars will be running the entire course in 1st gear. It looks like a sport (non-pro) cart course.
lol @ suburbia,,, it indeed looks like israeli settlements,,, but hey,,, its under construction, i dont mind the look suburban america,,, those americans would be surprised how much we have in common ;)

Houses, they are building houses! That cannot be Iran please, I constantly complain about the lack of houses in Tehran where kids can grow up with at least a little outside space.
