The Dalmation Coast in Croatia, the Amalfi Coast in Italy and Monaco’s coast on the Mediterranean Sea are often found on lists of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. Here are some pictures. Hard not to agree. The fourth picture is of the Marin coastline near San Francisco. It’s also beautiful but is it obviously more beautiful than the other coastlines? Personally, I don’t think so. But one thing is different. Far fewer people are enjoying the Marin coast. Why? Because fewer people live there. Can something be beautiful if there is no one to see it?
There is something to be said for protecting natural wilderness but must we do so on some of the most valuable land in the world?
I agree with Market Urbanism, “Quite simply, we must build Monaco on the Marin Headlands.”
Hat tip to Bryan Caplan who makes the point about beauty in his excellent, Build, Baby, Build.
