A stated goal is to be "as walkable as Paris or the West Village in New York."
Why should it be friendly to cars at all, when neither Paris nor NYC are known to be car friendly?
- JumpCrisscross 3y ago> when neither Paris nor NYC are known to be car friendly? Both are super car friendly. They’re just anti private car ownership.
- eesmith 3y agoI've driven in NYC. No, it is not. Just about every other city in the US is more driver friendly. Here are others who agree that NYC is not super car-friendly compared to other places. "Almost every New Yorker and anyone who has ever visited will encourage you not to drive in New York City." - https://www.tripsavvy.com/tips-for-driving-in-new-york-city-1612991 https://www.tripsavvy.com/tips-for-driving-in-new-york-city-... "Driving in NYC requires some serious skills and patience to conquer. Between the impatient and angry drivers, impossible street parking, inability to turn right on red, and the nightmare of getting stuck in the middle of an intersection, it’s definitely not the place you want to leisurely cruise between destinations. But if you should build the bravery to dive into the sea of yellow taxis in the Big Apple, you’ll want to be prepared with these safety survival tips." - https://shebuystravel.com/driving-in-nyc/ https://shebuystravel.com/driving-in-nyc/ "We gave New York [State] a “Good” rating for Traffic and Road Quality, despite the New York metropolitan area being one of the most traffic-congested regions in America." _ https://www.hagerty.com/media/archived/how-classic-car-friendly-is-your-state/ https://www.hagerty.com/media/archived/how-classic-car-frien... Compare it to Salt Lake City - that's a super car-friendly city.
