Disney World is the example that comes to mind as an environment where pedestrian movement is maximized. When it works it's still better than driving, but it's extremely tiring to walk _all day_ (at least if you're not used to it, like I'm not).

Lets handwave that concern away though; if everyone walked around that much normally it wouldn't be an issue right?

There are still roads, but they're mostly divided from pedestrian movement ways. Mass transit systems connect between the pedestrian optimized blocks. In at least that respect I think Disney World DID become the 'city of the future' example. That's the logical direction to move things.

Oh can we also ban all the noisy cars to underground passages except between 10am and 10pm and emergency use?
