      Parks with all the other people? Locked in a room in a 300 sq ft apartment with your family/roommates outside?

      The interchange allows you to live far enough away from the overcrowded city that you can own a bigger piece of land where you’re not packed in with your neighbors like sardines so you can actually go outside and sit and be alone without hearing 15 other families doing shit. It also allows you to have enough space to have a workshop space for hobbies or a garden or whatever else you want to do.

        You understand that Italy has areas that are not as densely populated as the city center. In fact some places are down right rural. And the US has some very densely populated square milage.

        This is such a wild, wild take on the US’s cat centric build.

        This is my hangup as well.

        I agree with the premise of this sub. The way car first places such as the US does things is a problem. The cars themselves and the underlying infrastructure, such as that exchange.

        But I also don’t want to live in cramped multidweller unit housing. I’ve done so most of my life and I hated it.

        I don’t know what or even if there’s a good solution that accomodates both, but I hope so.
