It’s more than 20 years.
More like 60 in Chicago
To be fair, Chicago had a giant fire that burned the entire city down, allowing them to add new alleyways for trash collection. It's one of the most important parts of American urban planning lore.
Alleys fucking rock. Sure, It means things aren’t as dense as possible, but it allows for better walkable areas, as way fewer driveways at the street mean easier walking.
