For the past 70 years, oil and auto companies have influenced city planners into creating environments that are made to be impossible for pedestrians to navigate. These environments have been catering solely to cars ever since we bought into the "American Dream" product. Most of the cities in America were built the way they are to maximize miles driven and oil profits. They aren't built for people, they're built for cars. It's pathetic and shameful.
Next time you're driving around in your car, take a look at how many half-walls surround the perimeter of any given stripmall. Those 5ft walls are there for a reason. The only place to enter is where the cars enter. It's just one of the many consciously-made planning codes created to deter travel by foot.
Even the bushes you see, the ones that you might believe to be beautifying the landscape, were consciously planted to deter pedestrian travel.
