AUTOMOBILE SYNDROME
60 to 70 percent of space is devoted to cars, streets,
parking and freeways which makes the automobile the
greatest consumer of public and personal space yet
created by man. How this could affect urban design?
Simple, cars or vehicles gobble up spaces which people
may meet therefore decreasing the chances of interactionan unhealthy social standing. People do not wish to walk
as a means to get to a place anymore, and worse, those
who wish to hardly could not find a place to walk. Not only
do pollution from cars makes outdoor unpleasant, but also
it makes people strange of each other.- This highlights the
importance of well designed outdoors.
