A quick look at Google maps indicates your claim is wrong.

Look along Main Street, say around 10200 Main, and you will see no little to no "front door" parking, you will see a narrow two-lane Main Street, you will see numerous older, pre-sprawl street-fronting buildings.

These are obvious characteristics of a pre-automobile built form. It isn't a Disney set. You will also see newer structures interspersed with the older development, mimicking the form and function.
