Opinion: Portland needs more cul-de-sacs
"Advocates have long dismissed cul-de-sacs as a suburban mistake...Rather than rejecting cul-de-sacs outright, Portland should borrow their best elements. We should design more residential streets where cars can’t cut through, but people walking and biking can. This is already a proven concept: Barcelona’s superblocks restrict vehicle access while keeping streets open for pedestrians and cyclists."
