Barcelona-style “superblocks” could make cities greener and less car-centric
No thank you.<p>They want to somehow have every single person in a 3 block radius park on the perimeter of that area? And this is somehow supposed to make things better?<p>I also have zero interest in walking 2 blocks to my car when I need it, nor do I want to carry my items that far from my car.<p>I especially like: "or reducing the number of parking spaces or the number of traffic lanes, for example—actions that might catalyze bigger, more permanent changes in the future."<p>Yes, let's make people miserable now, because it might possibly make some change later.<p>The concept of <i>first</i> make things better seems to have escaped them.<p>I'm really tired of anti-car advocates that have just a single idea: Make people too miserable to use a car, and maybe then there will be less cars.<p>Making people miserable is not a viable strategy.
