@CAForever wants to build a new city in Solano County: an affordable, high-density urbanist wonderland We talked to @jansramek about scale, inspirations, future anchor tenants, what kind of coffee shops it needs, and whether they can pull it off asteriskmag.com/issues/06/cali…
One of the books that has most shaped our thinking on public spaces. Smaller buildings have magic to them, and so have smaller public spaces. Great cities are large collections of small and unique thigns. It's that contrast that creates the magic.

Pirate Wires Podcast - How to Build a City: California Forever w/ Jan Sramek & Devon Zuegel In today's special episode, Mike Solana is joined by @jansramek and @devonzuegel to discuss California Forever — the startup that's building an entirely new city in Northern California.…
"After leaving this interview, I believe what Sramek and his team are doing is incredibly thoughtful, necessary, and compelling. And I think—after listening—you’ll agree." @bhargreaves interviews @jansramek here: thesisdriven.com/p/jan-sramek-o…
I spent the last few weeks studying plans for the new city between SF & Sacramento proposed by @CAForever As a California native, I've never been more captivated by a vision for my home state in my lifetime Here's a series documeting what I've learned: devonzuegel.com/post/the-new-c…
After launching the East Solano Homes, Jobs, and Clean Energy Initiative, we're delighted see the reactions from our friends and neighbors who want to rebuild the California Dream with us: californiaforever.com/supporters/
At the Fairfield Town Hall, we were asked about how ideas for the California Forever project have evolved over time:
We heard a lot of great feedback last night at the town hall in Fairfield. Thanks to everyone attended! Next week on 12/14 we’ll be hosting another town hall in Benicia.
We hosted our second town hall of the week last night in Vacaville. We’re grateful for all the input we’re receiving and are incorporating it in real-time into our plans. Looking forward to another town hall tonight in Fairfield!
Thank you to everyone who attended the town hall in Rio Vista last night!
We are proud to announce the formation of our Community Advisory Committee, consisting of 21 members of the Solano community. californiaforever.com/news/announcin…

Our Solano County Resident Surveys have been coming back and most people are saying exactly what Clorinda Keller said in this interview. It’s simple — Solano County needs more jobs, homes, clean energy, and tax revenues, and our project is by far the best way to get all that.
kqed.org/forum/20101018… “There’s so much wisdom in how we built cities and towns over hundreds or even thousands of years...we are different than the attempts to build new cities by people who’ve been wooed by the vision of some star architect to build the city of tomorrow. We…
californiaforever.com California was built on its pioneering spirit, its boundless optimism, and the utter conviction that if we work hard, and together, that our best days still lie ahead, waiting to be built, for our children, and for all the generations to come. Join us.

@BasedNorthmathr @jansramek called this out @PirateWires "arguments of the opposition boils down to: after building cities for 5000 years, we have the exact correct number of cities—we have the reached pinnacle if we ever build 1 additional city after 5000 years, it's the end of the world
@jansramek reminds me of what you were saying to @micsolana about protecting the magic that's happening in the Bay Area in the past decades...

Agreed. We need more bold new cities and experimentation with different ways of building and living.
The California Forever project is an awesome idea. californiaforever.com/news/the-urban…
Check out our blogpost, The Urbanist Case for a New Community in Solano County here: californiaforever.com/news/the-urban…
Check out the urbanist case for @CAForever. All great cities were once new towns, and we need to continue to experiment with urban forms. Appreciate that this isn't just a "smart city" tech utopia, but a thoughtful take on what makes cities great. californiaforever.com/news/the-urban…
Check out the prospectus for the new city tech leaders are building outside San Francisco: californiaforever.com/news/the-urban…
Danette Mitchell: Making your own decision on California Forever trib.al/xkYGkgb
Really like what I see in the California Forever idea. 20 units per acre MINIMUM, streets as public space, dedicated bus lanes, form based codes, and so much more. Before they released any details I was against it but now I am absolutely interested, although still skeptical.
Plans for the proposed new city between SF & Sacramento just dropped! @CAForever published the ballot initiative that, if passed by Solano County voters in Nov, would greenlight the project I have questions about the plan, but my immediate reaction is "hell yes!" This is…
#1: "[We're] focused on ‘missing middle’ housing" This is the type of neighborhood that makes up the most beloved places in the world Places like Amsterdam, Venice, Santa Monica, Lake Como, Kyoto, and Lisbon are all made of missing middle housing
These Missing Middle housing types may not look that dense, but building at this density could single-handedly solve CA's housing crisis You don't need to build towers to have density: x.com/devonzuegel/st…
Paris is almost entirely ≤6 stories. If SF were built to that standard, we'd have 3x the housing supply.
