I just walked from my office to get some lunch. There are a few options nearby, which is nice, but to get to any of them, I have to cross multiple massive parking lots and at least two non-signaled pedestrian crossings at stop signs that are 40+ feet wide. Between walking the 1/4 mile to lunch and back, I had 3 cars almost back out of a parking spot while I was walking by, and had one van roll into the crosswalk right in front of me at a stop sign.
EDIT: Also, there are only sometimes sidewalks available.
Well come on, WALKING to lunch? That's crazy. Hell that's why they have food trucks, so they can drive to you!
What do you expect, mystical office buildings with retail below? Or commercial shops on the same block. No way man, stop trying to make America into Europia
Walking to lunch is communism!
If you aren't getting into your car and driving for at least 10 minutes each way to go get lunch on your 30 minute unpaid lunch period so you can eat it alone at your desk when you get back - are you even American?
