Definitely agreed. Strictly better than cars, but there has to be something we're missing here, else this is a huuuge pain in the ass for literally no reason.
I have to disagree. Amenities such as benchs, and playgrounds can be place into the next street but there is a need to add important vegetation at least in some streets of dense urban environment to deal with heat wave and flood issues.
The problem isn't the vegetation; it's the lack of outlets to the other side of the road amid the vegetation. From the perspective shown here, it's a solid 40-ish meters until the next entrance to the sidewalk.
That is probably just perspective. By zooming, I can see two possibles places when they might be outlets.
