Needs a (2017) in title. This has been a very important article/concept in US planning circles. Personally I don't really like the street/stroad/road distinction but prefer the Transport for London 'movement and place' approach [0] which is clearer on necessary compromises. The end goal of both of course is to ensure traffic engineers (trained primarily in efficient car movements) take into account pedestrian considerations where pedestrians need to be, which have taken a back seat where there is any conflict with cars over the last 50 or so years.
