@chiliedogg wow this is a nice summary from which to start defining possible solutions. Off the top of my head, it would be low-rise residential co-op ownership clusters with adjoining, enclosed spaces like small Milan gallerias. Residential clusters will be connected by main commercial streets with offices and stores. Cluster groups form towns and cars would only be allowed to travel between towns but not within. Millions of people still need to transition to this, there’s no way around that.

@figstick @chiliedogg speaking of, one of the bigger challenges is the desire to be farther from other people. I think half of the lawn crowd is less about the lawns than just being farther from neighbors. Or at least that's what I experienced with folks who moved to Staten Island and New Jersey, basically trying to get away from places like Brooklyn where it was too crowded. They wanted more distance. For those folks, you need to accommodate some level of isolation which nobody talks about.
