I only see one problem there; what is La ville de Paris doing to increase pedestrianization? Street life at its lowest ebb is nothing to celebrate.

Enlarging the sidewalks too much that it increases car congestion.

T'as pas idée comme je me paie ta tête, y a pas plus exemplaire d'une vraie ville que Paris à ce niveau-là...

Nothing wrong with Paris on that front, that's for damn sure...
