Digital hermit. Another cosmic wanderer.
@Davriellelouna@lemmy.world
In another Brazilian city I personally know, Jundiaí - SP, some restaurants built some kind of “deck” (made of wood planks) on the side of the street. I tried to embed a photo from one of these (this is my first attempt on sending images to Lemmy using Calckey so I’m not sure if the image will work).
These “decks” were permanently installed, including electrical wiring running from the establishment to the “deck” lights. I don’t even know how the city hall authorized this, considering how the region (Campinas Microregion, Jundiaí Urban Agglomeration and Greater São Paulo, all of them in growing process of conurbation) is highly car-centric (yeah, there’s a growing public infrastructure including trains and bicycle lanes, and Jundiaí, specifically, is pretty walkable, but many things still seem to revolve around vehicles around there).
On the one hand, this theoretically frees up the sidewalk for pedestrians. On the other hand, it depends on the restaurant respecting pedestrians by keeping the sidewalk clear, and I don’t know to what extent these restaurants do this. But this concept of flatbed truck bar isn’t too far from that of these restaurants in Jundiaí.
