Car-Free Suburbs?

Last night I ran into Derek and Whitney of Tacoma's Exit 133. They mentioned a New York Times article that I needed to read about car-free suburbs in Germany.

I highly suggest that all of the transit and urban nerds out there take a full ready of this two page article.

It paints a picture of how we can rethink suburban planning around biking, transit, and walking. This community clearly promotes active living, vibrant street life and human interaction, and a greener future. Just imagine DuPont could have been.
