Paris now has 180 gorgeous ‘school streets.’ They are pedestrianized and landscaped streets around schools - to mitigate crashes, prioritize walking to school, reduce noise and air pollution. No brainer, really.

Prior to World War II, we built places like Galena, Illinois everywhere. Then our development pattern changed from walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods, to car-centric, single-use suburbs. The former is resilient and adaptable. The latter is fragile and inflexible.
