Do more with less when designing streets

Instead of trying to appease everyone when designing streets, this writer's "arguing for frugality and simplicity as higher principles when those redesigns do occur."

"The defining feature of all of the streets pictured above is that they are very narrow. Narrow enough that it's uncomfortable to drive any faster than about 20 miles per hour on them, especially when parked cars are present on both sides, requiring a certain amount of weaving around them."
