'At this point, 'building housing reduces rent' is as close to a scientific law of the housing market as we’re likely to find' - @Noahpinion
This @scottlincicome report is still one of the most radicalizing docs I've read in recent years, as someone with a small family. Want a new single-family home at 1,200 square feet? Too bad losers! We only do 4,000+ sq ft with 8 bedrooms now. cato.org/commentary/gov…
What does "single-stair reform" mean? How do rules prohibiting these building types impact our communities today? How single-stair prohibitions lead to large blocky 'double loaded corridor' buildings. Are single-stair buildings safe? A great explainer from @aboutherevideos.
Hard to overstate the impact a project like this would have on not only the appearance, but also the productivity of this area. Make it happen!
@big_pedestrian Why would a city even build transit in the first place if they didn't want to allow density around it? Do they want their own projects to fail?
THE UNBRIDLED GREATNESS OF TRAINS WILL ENDURE FOR A MILLION YEARS
If you want people to go slower, change the design before you change the speed limit.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health studied over 1000 streets on a quest to save lives. The result was something that any psychologist could tell you: DESIGN INFLUENCES BEHAVIOR. 🚘
@barely_th3re @cbenderatl Congestion pricing in New York has been a massive success. That being said, they only are able to succeed because they have an excellent transit system. Atlantans do not have options besides driving in many cases so congestion pricing would fail
@Boenau Imagine a world where the media covered pedestrian crashes like other forms of homicide. 7,000 pedestrians are killed every year in the USA and we barely hear about it. It's time to take this seriously
“Where Zoning Breaks: A GIS Analysis of Variances in Charlotte” open.substack.com/pub/localpolit…
Build dense cities to protect our beautiful American landscapres
The natural beauty of Alaska Vs. The built environment of Alaska How can people be okay with this?
The demand is there. Local policymakers can deliver it
New research shows 1 in 5 car owners want to live car-free, and a majority are open to it. The issue isn’t demand... it’s policy. Outdated zoning rules make walkable neighborhoods scarce, expensive, and often illegal to build across most communities. remainplaces.com/post/the-great…
Pedestrian landings and crosswalks should absolutely be the city's responsibility too. Snowstorms are a great opportunity to assess the preparedness and competence of your local government. It is rare that everyone relies on such a visible service, local gov must deliver.
A major issue with NYC snow removal is that streets are plowed by the city and sidewalks are shoveled by private property owners, while pedestrian landings/crosswalks at intersections are no one’s responsibility.
The 3-Story Rowhouse is *THE* American prototype … the perfect starter home
