The vitality of a city comes from its pedestrians, not its cars.
Cars consume enormous amounts of space and radically change the landscape.
On a quiet Sunday morning, you think to yourself that very few people are out, when what you mean is that their cars and trucks aren't crowding the roads. There are probably more people out in their yards or on the sidewalks. The same 40 people who constitute a crowd in traffic create a new city scene when they get out from behind the wheel. In the demonstration above, first they fill four lanes of downtown Tampa's Marion Street in their automobiles. Then each trades the driver's seat for a chair.
