उत्तर
The Harappan cities were well planned. The main streets ran parallel to each other, cut at right angles by smaller, streets, dividing the cities into rectangular blocks. The main roads were straight and very wide. The streets were often paved with baked bricks.
Dwelling houses were buildings that people lived in. They were in different sizes. They were made of baked bricks of very good quality. But they were not used as an office, trading place, etc.
