I've never really questioned how much room we reserve for driving until I spent the pandemic cramming into whatever's left over.

If there's one thing Covid changes, I hope it's how we use our precious public space. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/04/pandemic-shows-what-cities-have-surrendered-cars/610423/

In NYC, most free parking spots are the size of my last apartment's bedroom (and many storage units). Which are far from affordable.

I've never had enough money to practically consider owning a car—from the town i grew up in thru college and now NYC—but I've never wanted our streets seriously changed in a structural way until now.

Wonder how many other people feel the same https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/04/pandemic-shows-what-cities-have-surrendered-cars/610423/
