US cities looked like European cities before we decided to change course (they just had grids instead of mazes). We tore down dense cities, built freeways, and mandated suburbia as basically the only development style permitted. We can turn it around quite easily if we wanted. [1] is a great twitter account that shows the before and after destruction of our cities. [2] is a great series of videos contrasting our NA development to European development. Plenty of videos demonstrating the course Netherlands was on were following US development styles there too (car dominated inner cities) in the 70s/80s but they consciously decided to change course which is why they look like they do now. So we can change course too. If we want to. [1] https://twitter.com/SegByDesign
