Why Streetcars Aren’t About Transit

"No, streetcars are not a superior technology for moving people around. They may be a bit smoother and a bit bigger and a bit less polluting than buses, but they’re not faster, and they’re certainly not cheaper. But that’s almost beside the point, because at their essence streetcars aren’t tools for transportation. They are tools for developing corridors and bringing investment to neighborhoods."--1/12/2014 - NextCity.org, via Atlanta Regional Commission
