In this insightful audiobook, former New York City Traffic Commissioner Sam Schwartz, known as "Gridlock Sam," explores the historical shift that made American cities reliant on automobiles. He examines the evolution from vibrant, multiuse streets to car-dominated highways, tracing the impact of the Model T and post-war policies on urban landscapes. Schwartz reveals a revolutionary trend as younger generations increasingly favor active transportation options, marking a significant shift in how Americans navigate their cities.
