  • Hello, this François on fantsy pants lane. Yes the one that doesn’t have a road, that’s it.

    Anyway, I need 400 sq feet of ceramic tile delivered as I’m having some work done to my flat. I also need about 20 gallons of mastic and five bags of sanded grout. No, you can’t drive a delivery van here, there is a shared lot two blocks away you can park at and then then the delivery people will have to bring everything from there. You won’t do it? Yes I know tile is heavy. 2400 lbs? Well, dont you have a smaller delivery bike or something? Well, can’t you get one? I don’t understand why you’re being so uncooperative!


  • OK then I will bite.

    How do workers and tradespeople get to these places? When their refrigerator breaks and they need a repair or a new one, are those delivered on a bike?

    When someone buys a mattress, do they just helicopter them in?

    When people move into these apartments how does the furniture get moved in? Movers just carry it a full city block?

    How do plumbers and electricians bring their equipment in? How do tilers, roofers, people who replace windows get to these places?

    How do emergency services get in here? Fire trucks just dont anymore?

    I dislike traffic, congestion and poor air quality, but the idea that we don’t need roads is just silly. Manage them, dont delete them. This is the folly of the bourgeois.
