While Bacon was a trained planner who represented the economic needs of the public realm, Kahn was an architect who advocated for the powerful form and the system of movement at large. This paper presents a methodological search for the distinctive characteristics of Kahn's plan that might have made it practical for Philadelphia—the idea of the city of flow and the monumental civic centre.&lt;/p&gt;
