To take this to its logical conclusion, once the streets are gone, there is no need for buildings anymore, so they can tear those all down and plant a forest. But then you wonder where you are going to put all the people who used to live and work there.

Who said anything about streets? The article only mentions removing roads, which makes sense to me
