We as a society won't be getting rid of car culture (outside of obvious places like NYC, etc) in our lifetimes. The fix involves enormous capital expenditures to actually build a real public transportation system with dedicated ROWs, and behavioral changes. It's a real chicken/egg thing.

Otherwise, Bob and Karen will always need a place to park their car when commuting in from Georgetown and Hutto.


A more realistic solution is enforcing better design guidelines. There's plenty of ways to disguise parking decks, provide ground floor retail, and activate the street level.
