Review of 'Walkable city' on 'Goodreads'

I had to stop myself from quoting every single fact. Cities planned around cars are a root problem for a ton of American issues. The author is very knowledgeable on planning for downtown areas in different cities and optimizing for walkability and bike use.

I wanted a little bit more train data.

I'm very lucky to be able to live in a highly walkable area with a lot of public transit.
