Speaking of the Po plain metropolitan system along the Mediterranean Corridor, we must refer to a nontraditional settlement vision. This kind of vision finds its roots in a certain number of essays and publications concerning the development of various settlements along kinematical axes, based on communication and transportation infrastructures that sometimes evolve rapidly, while other times takes a long time. For instance, BosWash is a name coined by Herman Kahn in a 1967 essay describing a theoretical US linear metropolitan system extending from the urban area of Boston to that of Washington D.C. This publication coined terms like BosWash referring to a predicted urbanization in the Northeastern US or SanSan for the urban agglomerations on the Pacific coast of California.
