Cities are for people, not for cars.

Uh huh. That is definitely something you've seen because it's so commonplace. Sure.

The point is that the way we build cities reflects our priorities and values. If you begin with the premise that everyone will have a car and use it as their primary means of transportation, then you end up with a city that is very different (in my view worse) than if you begin with the premise that cities should be enjoyable for the people who live and work in them, and navigable without the use of a car.
