These Garden Cities would contain proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture.

In the early 20th century, Letchworth, Brentham Garden Suburb and Welwyn Garden City were built in or near London according to Howard's concept and many other garden cities inspired by his model have since been built all over the world.
