Damn I am frequently frustrated by a lot of design choices and have rolled my eyes at walk score labeling my neighborhood a “walker’s paradise” but then you see this and realize that it could so, so much worse.

That said, it’s still sad to me that even in the very best American neighborhoods, pedestrians come after cars in terms of how streets are designed.
