At this point the car centric nature of the city and relatively poor public transit are far bigger barriers to growth.

The car-centric nature is a consequence of filling the land up with single-family homes that have garages. Mass transit is only ever popular when it is more convenient than driving and parking a car.

This is true. However, it does not point to an immediate solution.
