Housing is good and we should build more of it in the places people want to live.

One of the biggest drivers of high housing costs is that a small, highly motivated group of incumbent homeowners block new housing in their neighborhoods and almost no one is organized to push back. Young people bear the brunt of that imbalance. Be a housing fan.

A speeding car nearly killed my baby today. I'm so sick of how much traffic violence is just routine in South Seattle.

A compromise in the coco robots, the city can permit them to operate on sidewalks that are at least 20ft wide, are part of city wide snow clearing, and that have raised crosswalks.

'The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees. The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas. The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor, And the highwayman came riding— Riding—riding— The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.'

Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?

if the x-seed 4000 had the density of a capsule hotel, how many people could live in it? I feel maybe 40 million or so? I think maybe the human race should live like that, and let the rest of the planet re-wild, with some bike paths and nice parks, botanic gardens etc.

there is some merit to this take insomuch as it is abt ppl transporting around older kids as they generally are able to ride their own bikes w their parents by abt six & on their own by eight, so cargo bikes for those ages mean that the infra doesn't support it. but idt that's the argument here...

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but "cargo bikes" are a solution looking for a problem, and if scaled, a problem for cyclists and motorists. I say this as a former bicycle and motorcycle messenger, as well as a PA in Los Angeles through the 90s

They've done an interesting thing in Oxford which is to bring in a small congestion charge in the city and at the same time make the park and ride super cheap with a free return bus ticket. It seems to have changed people's habits very quickly. Make public transport a no brainer and people use it!

"Having access to a family car made far-flung places viable for living, working, and playing, fueling a middle-class expansion across previously rural areas. The promise of freedom and wealth held until cities began optimizing for vehicle throughput instead of local access and mobility" -Andy Boenau

There’s a King Midas aspect to motor vehicles, this technological gift that promised and delivered abundance until it became a curse.

A 25 unit apartment building will house hundreds, maybe even thousands of people over its 50-100 year lifespan, which is why it’s insane that we let a small contingent of change-averse busybodies block new housing.

One of the biggest drivers of high housing costs is that a small, highly motivated group of incumbent homeowners block new housing in their neighborhoods and almost no one is organized to push back. Young people bear the brunt of that imbalance. Be a housing fan.

For the holidays I'm doing a 30% discount for annual subscriptions to my blog. If you or someone you know likes cities and transit, wants to see my exclusive / partially paywalled posts (spicy one coming in the next while), and wants to support a creator doing transit stuff, consider subbing!
