Hopefully, we'll see more and more street reclamation, with cars pushed to parking lots and downtown streets reserved for walking, bicycling, and the occasional small electric vehicle for those who need them. Local laws need to change, so we all need to vote in local elections. Voter turnout for local elections is abysmal in most cities and towns.

We used to have places like Der Wienerschnitzel and Taco Bell with tables outside, but you still had to drive there and park. I don't know if new places are built like this anymore, probably not many. The last gasp of this sort of thing in America.

That wienerschnitzel looks so similar to a hamburger stand/wienerschnitzel down the street from me. I'm honestly convinced it's an old photo of it
