I can see your point. I wasn't calling any city out for being trendy, just saying when I'm thinking of being a walkable city I'm not referencing what is a trendy walkable that is often talked about on this forum.
Oh no I understand, kinda. Trendy areas happen to be in walkable areas now though so I think most decent sized cities will have some kind of trendy walkable neighborhood.
Some photos I shot while in NO. I've been to all the cities I would say New Orleans easily. The streets are much older, narrower and more densely compact lined with wall to wall buildings closer together at just about every corner you turn.
I've been to many of these cities and they are mostly geared towards cars.
In NOLA I live 4 miles from the CBD and take the streetcar each day to and from work. The same can happen from almost all neighborhoods in the city. Algiers and NOLA east are much more car driven though .

You're really describing the French Quarter, and it looks like all your photos were taken there. The entire city of New Orleans is not like that, although it is still pretty urban and walkable. You're presenting a small area of the city as if it's representative of the whole place.

This is the only part that isn't true for majority of the city.

Nice. I was in that city 4 years ago.
