The runner is occupying the whole lane though and they have headphones on preventing the cyclist from getting their attention.

Assuming the structure can support the weight, I'm all in favor of green roofs. Though, most buildings are privately owned and therefore are not true replacements for proper public greenspace within a city. I think it's also important not to get distracted from the primary source of land waste within cities: car infrastructure.
The Internet is not a replacement for real human interaction. Also a lot of elderly people have trouble using it.
I don't really see an obvious solution here that avoids the need for a car, at least in the US (which I'm assuming you're in base on the kind of car you drive). If your goal is to ultimately ditch the car, depending on how frequent the trips are, you could potentially save money by renting a car just for the longer trips.
Until it's actually built, don't count on it. NIMBYs will fight tooth and nail every chance they get. Even after it's built there will be a constant barrage of unfounded complaints about how it hurts traffic flow and makes it more dangerous for drivers. Show up to your city council meetings and make sure to hold them accountable for their promises.
"But that would hurt businesses who rely on these vehicles to get work done!"
-idiots forgetting that no work will get done if our planet becomes uninhabitable
This is no laughing matter, and where are your stilts?!
No buses in this post? I'd place them under chaotic neutral
