The one that gets me is Juneau. Like, it’s totally cut off from the land and has a river running down the valley. You could have done some Venice shit or some Amsterdam stuff but instead they built a highway and shipped cars in.
Tbc, you cannot drive out of Juneau. Your car just hangs out there.
TBF there are car ferries to Skagway and Washington
But yeah would’ve been cooler if they didn’t
Yeah, but in equivalent places in other parts of the world you’d park in Skagway or Washington and take the ferry into Juneau
I remember reading that the Sim City developers wanted to make the game as realistic as they could, but parking lots took up so much space that it would basically ruin the game if they included them. They ended up adding a few parking areas here and there for aesthetics but otherwise just assumed that cars parked underground.

(Is there an emote version of this?)
Oh yeah, look at that utilization
And that sprawl
This is how you play frostpunk.
Great idea for a city mostly funded by tourists that can’t drive there
Is there something like parking lot map for other countries? It’d be cool to see stuff around my area
Also, ofc the only plants in that image are grass and trees :'(
Based on OSM data, so can be spotty depending on the local scene, also foregoes on street parking but it gets you close enough and it’s free
Thank you for that. I’m just realising how “tame” my area is with parking in comparison to places in the US. There are new ones being built though, so it’s actively getting as bad as it is there
This was the query I ran if anyone wants to reuse it
