    Bogota still has no metro system being the largest city in the Americas not not have one. The next largest to lack one is Cali and then Houston. To be fair they are building one right now, but still not a great example

      Houston is notoriously carbrained though, they basically have as much land dedicated to parking spot asphalt as they’ve for … office skyscrapers, with almost no good greenery.

      tbf i’m not gonna shit on progress. do i want it to be perfect? yes. do i think good is an issue? no. i’ll not go for anything below ‘good’, but definitely will strive for perfect there as an ideal.
