Cars are never going away, that’s not happening. So, it’s obviotsly a aspect of transportation that must be dealt with and addressed in even the most dense of areas.

I never said zero cars, and I don't need to imagine New York City as I have been there.
There is a big difference between "acknowledging cars" and making everything primarily accessible to the driver of a single passenger vehicle. I mean I guess there's a big difference, but I really have no idea what you mean by acknowledging.
I don't want cars to go away. I want cars to be part of a balanced system of transit. Why must every issue be defined by its binary absolutes? It's not "all cars, all the time" or "no cars, never" (actually, right now it pretty much is all cars, all the time).
