I have this idea that I've had fun discussing with friends. I think OOT can do even better. The basic premise is to build a city/development from scratch and replace all roads and parking lots with bike trails and bike racks. With a few exceptions, only non-fuel-burning vehicles are allowed inside the city. The effect would be to shrink the city. How much smaller would your city be if you sucked away all roads and parking lots and pushed everything together to fill that space? Almost everything would be within biking/walking distance. Beyond the city limits will be several city parking lots where people can leave cars for out-of-town trips, etc.

What have I forgotten? Why will/won't this work? How can it be made better? Run with it, OOT.
