“(C)ritics at the turn of the century commonly insisted Manhattan had no future. If things went on the way they were headed... by 1920 the city would be up to its second story windows in horse poop. Absolutely correct arithmetic. It ignored one thing: the invention of that marvellous environmental boon that so dramatically reduced dust, soot, disease, odor and overcrowding... the automobile.”
