If the parking lots were eliminated, buildings would be so close to each other that you could walk and you wouldn't even need parking lots.

    Lemme tell you a story.

    A few years back I was on a trip to the US, I was visiting a small town, not much going on there but they had an airport.

    When I checked out from the hotel the receptionist asked me if I wanted her to call me a cab, I said no because the airport was 1.5km away from the hotel and I'll just walk there. Poor woman was looking at me as if I was stabbing a baby right in front of her, a look so bevildered and confused that I actually felt sorry for her.

    Then the hotel driver appeared from the office and took me to the airport... Such a weird country

    Anyway, moral of the story is, good luck convincing those people to walk.
