In the midst of overpopulated cities, he tried to create quasi-rural housing environments. In all of his urban planning commissions, Correa avoided high-rise housing solutions. __________________.

Explanatory Answer

Option 1: While this may be true, it does not logically follow from the previous sentence about his preference for low-rise housing.
Option 2: While Correa was sensitive to urban issues, this sentence does not directly address his choice of low-rise over high-rise solutions.
Option 3: The sentence before the blank states that Correa avoided high-rise housing solutions, so the missing sentence should logically continue this idea. Option (c) fits best because it explains what he focused on instead—low-rise dwellings that emphasized the human scale and fostered a sense of community.
Option 4: While Correa did consider climate, this does not directly explain his preference for low-rise housing.

Hence, the answer is 'He focused on low-rise dwelling solutions that emphasized the human scale and created a sense of community'

Choice C is the correct answer.
