[Read by Don Hagen]

In December 1973 a section of New York's West Side Highway collapsed under the weight of a truck full of asphalt. The road was closed, which ought to have produced traffic chaos, but it didn't. The cars simply vanished. It was a moment of revelation: the highway had induced the demand for car travel. Samuel Schwartz was inspired by the lesson. He started to reimagine cities freed from their obligation to cars. Eventually, he found, he was not alone. Since the turn of the twenty-first century, a surreptitious revolution has taken place: every year Americans are driving fewer miles. Schwartz's Street Smart is an affectionate history of American cities and an inspiring off-road map to a more vibrant, active, and vigorous urban future.
