- I often show this in my lectures to lighten the atmosphere of hopelessness and lethargy. One correction, though: cities don’t make choices. In Amsterdam, it was massive anti-car protests—and leaders in office with the will, vision, and willingness to take risks—that responded to those demands.
- Remember this picture, & others like it, every time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970s. Many of the cities we admire made better choices regarding cars in the past. and are still making better choices today. Better choices instead of excuses.
