What about similarly populated cities?
In new street additions, Kondagaon built increasingly disconnected streets over time, while Kastamonu built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1976-1990, then shifted to more disconnected patterns and Fatehpur built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then shifted to more disconnected patterns. For the full network, Kondagaon became progressively more disconnected, while Kastamonu became more connected from 1975 through 1976-1990, then grew more sprawly from 1976-1990 onwards and Fatehpur became more connected from 1975 through 1991-2005, then grew more sprawly from 1991-2005 onwards. Kondagaon and Kastamonu have been converging in their street-network character since 1975.
