Lovecraft is awesome if you want some short stories. Call of Cthulhu, Colour out of Space, and Rats in the Walls area my personal favorites.

Haven’t watched the video yet but I’m guessing the reasons are:

• Zoning - mixed use zoning and medium density housing are notoriously missing in the US.

• Setbacks/Clear zones - Time and time again, US city planners have widened roads, straightened roads, and removed trees and such, catering towns and cities for driving, rather than building them for humans.

• Parking

PG is amazing. I love StandardEbooks.org as well. They have a smaller selection, but they are impeccably formatted and really high quality.
