Some people think urbanism is all about making cities more walkable but it’s not
Urbanism is about making cities better places to live. Which means improving the amenities and resources people have access to as well as making sure people of all walks of life can afford to live in our cities.

conservative urbanist is an oxymoron
If you aren’t going to accept people of all backgrounds in your city then you’re not going to make your city a good place to live.

The people who claim transit is dangerous are the same people who cut off 3 lanes of traffic than park in the bike lane.

I fucking hate when I see micro influencers spread dehumanizing rhetoric about homeless people.
These people are your neighbors. Have some god damn humanity.

Americans are so carbrained that the idea of changing street space to not serve only cars is an attack on their freedom of movement.

Love that small business owners who don’t look at data can determine our road layouts!
"While we support mass transit, we cannot support the seven mile BAT lane option... Taking away 50% of the capacity will not only result in increased congestion, but will also result in 82nd Avenue becoming a more dangerous corridor to drive on." - David Tarlow, owner of Washman Car Wash

“But where will people park?” But instead of complaining about less car parking it’s me worrying about secure bike parking.

Just want to remind everyone that most car trips in America are under 6 miles. While lacking public transit is an issue, the bigger problem is our atrocious zoning.

There’s this weird myth that just building more housing will lower rents
The problem with that line of thinking is that it assumes renters will want to compete with eachother and not collude on rental prices
