Slideshow: Imagine Your Los Angeles Street Beyond Cars13/132/13
1 / 13

When a surprisingly serene Carmageddon had Angelenos across the city uttering a collective, "Well, that wasn't so hard," GOOD wondered what a car-free Los Angeles would look like. Your submissions—in the form of models, sketches, exposition, and graphics—gave us an inspiring glimpse into what that future could be. Browse through our favorites and tell us which you makes you most willing to ditch the drive. Join us to continue the conversation at the Moving Beyond Cars Party this Thursday, August 11 from 7-10pm at the A+D Museum. Check out all the details on Facebook.
