@andrewrgross @HiddenLayer555 Also that urban planners don't actually plan cities in the US, traffic engineers do. Planners only decide what to do with the land that's left after people who know nothing about cities have made plans for everyone to speed around in a private car and how much of that space has to be mandatorily devoted to parking the cars.
