When this person woke up this morning, they didn’t say to themselves:
“I’m going to make my city’s streets safer, air cleaner, traffic lighter, neighborhood quieter, and medical and maintenance bills cheaper.”
Yet they do all of that anyway. Why? The right choice is designed to be the easy choice.

Rediscovering Buried Rivers from Zurich to Yonkers and NYC -> see how daylighting Flushing Creek could rejuvenate urban spaces, boost biodiversity, and enhance community life.
Why We Need Daylighting in Kissena Park
Daylighting, or the process of uncovering buried rivers and streams, is gaining popularity worldwide for its significant social, environmental, and economic benefits. As waterways were once the lifeblood of cities, they transformed hubs of humanity before being buried due to pollution and industrial expansion during the industrial revolution. The ecohydrology-based renaturalization of these waterways is seen as a means to recapture lost spaces and improve the quality of life in cities.

How the One Seattle Comprehensive Plan could affect people with disabilities
The One Seattle Comprehensive Plan is working its way through city council. It dictates how the city will grow over the next twenty years, including where density is allowed.

KC 1929: Assertions to the effect that “people preferred to drive” are guesses in the guise of explanations. A minority of motorists degraded streetcar service for the majority.
KCPSC: “Practically the only cause of delay in service is due to unthinking motorists who block [streetcars’] progress.”
