- mitthrowaway2 3y agoI'm not sure what the GP's city is, but many old cities in Europe were torn up in the 1960s-70s for freeways and parking lots, because the future would be the age of the automobile. People look to Amsterdam now as a pedestrian and bicycle paradise, but that's a recent development; until a couple decades ago it was as car dependent as anywhere.
