Parking quietly rules everything around us. Questioning that system and imagining and advocating for a different one was and remains a revolutionary act; Soup’s work, advocacy, and legacy will continue to change society for the better for years to come.
I'm deeply saddened to share that Donald Shoup passed away last night. He was the ideal academic—curious, methodical, and concerned with turning ideas into real-world change. TAing his parking course these past few years has one of the greatest honors of my life. Rest in peace, Shoup Dogg.

Why housing shortages cause homelessness - Works in Progress
Why do high-cost cities have more homelessness? It's not just about rents — it’s also about the rooms friends and family can’t afford to share.
