Transit in most of the US has long been thought of as a way for people to commute for work without having to deal with traffic.

Many people use transit for a multitude of other reasons and with many of our stations still reflection the older use case of people using transit to avoid commuter traffic. Its time to rethink the area around our stations and work on providing last mile connections to destinations around our rapid transit stations.
