The decision to build a stadium that is completely inaccessible without a vehicle, even if you are staying at a hotel next door, is the point.

For at least a few decades, I’ve been hearing complaints about American city planning intentionally excluding people who choose to, or can do nothing but, walk. Making it mandatory to arrive via automobile, that’s what they’re complaining about.

The first I’d heard of this was a rich area in socal being completely inaccessible to the homeless because it was rimmed entirely by freeways. No way to leave or enter safely without a car and few groceries just outside. A local food desert. Or a food fort

With that said, half of MetLife’s exterior is walkable, according to some maps. A long walk around a freeway is part of it. I’m not a fan of an extra 10 minutes of walking with industrial scenery but it seems fine enough

If there's a clear need to cross, they should provide a way to cross. That's how you prevent people improvising their own way.

No, it's not a lie. You literally cannot walk from where this sign is posted to MetLife Stadium while obeying New Jersey traffic laws. And I don't mean some ad hoc one either; I mean e.g. ones about not playing Frogger across 10 lanes of highway traffic.

That's not necessarily a lie, it's illegal to walk on highways almost everywhere.
