Like in Montreal...
“Owning a car only adds to the financial stress that a lot of particularly young people feel living here. And there’s not a ton of parking. There’s a lot of snow in the winter, so you have to dig out your parking spot. Fights break out because people perceive that others are trying to take their spot from them. So the idea of having a car here doesn’t appeal to me at all.”https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/may/08/americans-without-cars-driving-dominated-country

“Everyone agrees that 100% of cars should be electric. That’s not the question. The real question is whether you really need to own a car.”
-- Tiina Ruohonen, climate advisor to the mayor of Oslo

i finally visited the new park at 5m
the walkway is really nice (we definitely need more car-free spaces! +bollards)
as well as the street leading to to it. it's a narrow width and drivers naturally slow down. that's good traffic calming
big ups to the designers! #SanFrancisco #transportation #landscapearchitecture #CarfreeCities #CarFreeZones
