The images I'm seeing of Le Corbusier’s Radiant City are so beautiful. I would love to have the ability to create a Blender model of something like that.
This short documentary on architect Vo Trong Nghia also made a large impact on me:

Look up Le Corbusier’s Radiant City for something from way back in the early 20th century that sounds a little bit like your idea.
Also don't give up on Blender, it took me a while too but now I wouldn't use anything else. It's all about learning the main keyboard shortcuts really - which is a big barrier to newbies but a bit speed boost once you get used to it.
