Why?

>>542507385
Because it defeats the entire purpose of living in a city: walkability. Also they're insanely loud and polluting.

>>542507256
Yeah, but in the cities of TX half of the highway roads are confusing as fuck. There is more asphalt/concrete but it is all jammed up because "how do I get to the building on the right... Take a left drive for a mile then take a 1 way street for 2 miles." Yeah but I guess that's why they are always tearing shit up and redoing it, especially in the Dallas area.

Walkable city in Saudi Arabia. Sounds like a blast.

>despite having no building materials in sight, no industrialization, no large fresh water sources, no natural defense against colonizers

I have a feeling OP is a salty stinky Indian Hindpoo poopnigger gulfslave who cleans toilets for a few rupees (which is still a dozen times more than he would ever earn in India). Dubai and other gulf Muslim countries are testaments to the indomitable ability of Islam to create civilization anywhere and everywhere.

Nobody wants to ban cars. Just decrease car traffic in city centers, and keep them separated from cyclists and pedestrians.

If it's like 130 degrees out half the year, then yeah, you might as well design it like this.

>>542507640
Why? Everyone knows walkable cities are more beautiful and vibrant.
>>
>>542507305
the cities here developed before the advent of major transportation needs, so there simply isn't room on the old trails that became streets that became highways

The fuck? No it wasn't. This is the Arabian Peninsula, not the Sahara. People have fought over that peninsula since they have known how to fight.

It's not hotter than Vegas. Vegas is an abomination too. Tons and tons of open pavement only makes the heat worse.

>>542507256
Most US cities realized that having highways running through the core of the city was a mistake and put them underground or moved them wherever possible.

>>542507747
Y'know, maybe that's a good thing?

it wasn't couched in an opinion, it's simply a fact.

Then why does everyone always rave about European cities?
>>
>>542507749
They fought over the coastal bits while the dregs were forced out into the desert

Vegas has a dry heat; it really isnt anywhere near as bad as south florida.

Might just be you and your poofta m8s m8
>>
>>542507834
I mean European cities are often beautiful. They also tend to be really old, and a lot of those beautiful, historical areas didn't have to worry about cars to begin with since they didn't exist yet.

India allegedly has a 3 trillion economy. The economy of the richest desert Muslim country is $200 billion. Where is India's Dubai? What about Africa? Is Venezuela anywhere near as clean and safe as Abu Dhabi? You can't build civilization with just oil.

>>542507749

No one set up and build colonies there because it was always seen as worthless sand. They were fighting over control over the silk road trade routes.

>We don't have 8 lane highways right next to the skyscrapers
we should! if the cities werent made before cars then we certainly would have cities that look like that. have you ever tried to drive downtown?

American cities were the same until after WWII when you restructured all your cities for your national highway project.

The tranny ITT wants to be able to ride his bicycle to the gay bar if he ever visits, which he won't because he thinks they're oppressive bigots who don't even have gay bars, but he still wants the bicycle lane just in case.
>>
>>542507861
>>542507982
My guys, OPs pic is motherfucking DUBAI, it is the coastal bit on the silk trade routes you're talking about. They didn't build it on the undesirable central desert, they built it specifically on the part people fight over.
>>
>>542508494
Oh I just assumed it was riyadh, my bad
>>
>>542508557
riyadh is worse although they now have a new expansive beautiful metro. kafd, which is a new financial downtown zone in riyadh is very nice.

dubai definitely is sprawled but it does have a nice modern metro which is expanding rapidly, and it does in fact have many walkable areas. the dubai government has made it their aim to rapidly increase walkability and many new urban neighborhoods are very well designed. although one must realize dubai's economy is in large part based on real estate and there r a bunch of rich ppl from abroad who simply want a gated relatively secluded suburban home to invest in so they're gonna have to fill that demand.

It (yes I'm using the objects pronoun) just copied what the Romans did two thousands years ago. That just how pathetic your little dictator was. Communism is just soulless

We do have some cities built like that.

Stalin was a gypsy Jew from the Caucasus, of course he had no soul.

As a Muslim, I must concede that European architecture shits all over our Arab Lego buildings. We are too focused on arguing over which goat is the sexiest to consider building things that hold actual beauty (bro, don't ask me if I lost my virginity to a goat, that's private!!)

The neo gothic revival of the 1800s was the peak of humanities soul and I weep when I lay my eyes on such buildings, may Allah forgive me.
