American cities are built for cars, not for people. However, technology is beginning to wean the U.S. off its car addiction.

And next year in Austin, Texas, construction will begin on a 30-storey residential tower that will not offer parking spaces to residents. The Austin innovation doesn’t stand alone as more cities are developing liveable and walkable downtown areas.
