Non-parents, think about this the next time you see a baby tip out of a stroller.
1. The sidewalks are almost un-strollable. Those in wheelchairs already know this. On too many sidewalks, cracks are high and wide, and bricks that don’t look loose are just that. The smoothest streets are Broad and Walnut, where taking the baby for a walk is actually a pleasure. Too bad getting there is hell. Your eyes have to be peeled to the street, and I’ve heard horror stories of strollers tipping over and kids falling out. I crave the smooth, clean sidewalks of Manhattan. Hell, even L.A., the most un-walkable city in America has safer sidewalks.
