        My guess is OP is being sarcastic because progress to many people means more highways & cars. More construction and development.

        I wish we had more of this kind of progress near me (Colorado USA).

    Are you suggesting this is not progress? Because this is honestly amazing.

      This title is under a few layers of irony, there are similar pictures floating around of green spaces converted to highways in the US with the same title, OP is suggesting the European version actually is progress

    Yes progress! Using the quotes there make it seem like you disagree that this is progress, which I will choose to believe you didn’t mean it like that.

    I have seen a few pictures like this from around the world. It’s pretty encouraging
