Urbanist couple vacation walks: guessing how many units exist based on the footprint of the bldg then confirming via mailboxes, doorbells and electric meters.
Portland, ME: little difference in bulk between a single-unit and a 4-plex. And look at those 5 and 8-plexes! @tunameltzer.bsky.social

The novelty of #grocerybybike with our Christiania cargo bike hasn’t worn off. It’s so awesome & easy to do a full grocery trip & throw the bags in the box. And my daily commuter (Breezer uptown) is no slouch! (pictured with weekly Farmers Market hauls)

Hard to capture the joy & laughter that riding & steering a Christiania e-cargo bike brings. So happy for this new whip! @boxcycles #christiania

From small towns (Cujik) to big cities (Utrecht) and from off street paths to highway interchanges, follow the red carpet rolled out to make bicycles feel like the most important user of our largest public space (roads). @tunameltzer

Hard to believe we are 13 days into our course! Copenhagen was full of inspiration about planning cities for people, playful cities, conscious choices & infrastructure v human nature. I reflect on these topics in my blog! Link in profile & visuals for inspiration. @tunameltzer

Early morning SJ Snabbtåg from Malmö C to Stockholm C for research trip. The #5 Express bus was running on 5 min headways at 6:30 am! Traveling by train is more comfortable than plane, and I appreciate the small design features.

Paris is like : “who says there’s no room for bikes?” Cobblestones? Monuments? Historic parks? Mature avenues of trees? Squares? Buildings with no setbacks? No problem. Plenty of room for safe protected biking infrastructure.

Thoroughly enjoyed being reunited with a night train (Vy Nattåg) on our journey from Stockholm to Abisko! Comfortable, convenient, timely, relatively affordable, and beautiful views. @tunameltzer

Got a little lost wandering from fika home and stumbled upon a collection of all the best places around the corner from our flat: 2 bike shops, a bagel shop, a corner store, and a bar! Fancy pastries across the street as well. And a preschool adjacent.

Amsterdam’s solution to narrow streets that are full of people (rather than metal boxes): bike parking barges! How many parked cars would fit in the equivalent amount of space? “Parking policy is space policy.” -Marjolein de Lange
