Too much travel done by car in the US.
Sidewalk cafes in Europe thrive off foot traffic to and mass transit and bicycles.
All those cars require all the parking lots. Parking decks are too expensive for every little cafe to build. So the businesses group to pool the parking cost. A strip mall.
You want a cafes scene? Get rid of most the cars.
