Flashback - 1980; TARC idea calls for first transit center on urban edge.
The concept included dedicated lanes for fare-free electric coaches operating every ten minutes and free bus service from Jackson to 9th St and the River to Broadway.

Feel like this is a unicorn in the TARC system. Two #19s passing at what is probably one of the more difficult turns to make in the network - an eastbound #19 from Clifton Ave to Frankfort Ave.

The PTSA in St. Petersburg, Fl developed this beautiful, circular transit center in 2003. I particularly love the use of glass brick in the support columns which glow during the night.

This is literally from the NYT/Siena poll following the debate. Journalists were tracking how voters felt about candidates’ age and more were concerned about Biden than Trump by a very very wide margin. Astead was and is right to point out Dems ignored that.
