Canada is small in population and mighty in our economy. It is incredible to see the high-rise tower construction happening in Toronto and Vancouver in this North American overview.

In Riley Park, located between #Kensington & #SAIT in #Calgary there is a small patch of Plains Prickly pear, which bloom for a few weeks in late June. The rest of the year they're rarely noticed. This second #photo was taken yesterday. You can't say these cacti aren't hardy, no? 😉 #photography

I wonder how many garages are used for parking? How much is used for storage or other purposes? Are there studies on how people use their garages today, the past, regionally over time?

US President Jimmy Carter led through hands on building Habitat for Humanity homes. I had the honour to participate in the 2017 Edmonton, Canada Jimmy & Rosalynn led Carter House build. What an inspiring legacy he created leading new homes over 30 years with 108,100 volunteers. #Carter #Habitat

I don’t think we should care about aesthetics that much, but I *do* think people think subsidized affordable housing is “scarier” than it is.
This building is home to a very fancy brunch place and awesome coffee shop, and looks pretty “luxury”.
Most units are home to people making 30-60% AMI

Great article on openstreets⏬️. I had a blast riding through LA during CicLAvia, and I hear Bogota's weekly Ciclovía is amazing. Anyone else a fan of open streets events? #cyclists #openstreets #urbanism
Why have I never heard of this? We could do it in #ldnont --car free downtown one morning a week: "“We build a new city every Sunday” slate.com/business/202...
Bogotá’s Open Streets Program Is the Most Successful in the World. I Went to Find Out Why.
If you ask a Bogotáno where they learned to ride a bike, they all have the same answer.

Finland is winning the war on fake news. What it’s learned may be crucial to Western democracy
Russia's neighbor has developed a plan for countering misinformation. Can it be exported to the rest of the world?

Opportunities for affordable housing providers to acquire lands and one day redevelop as perpetual rental is a key strategy to address that challenge of displacement of existing renters when properties are redeveloped.

🏘️. Increasing the availability of rental units is crucial for meeting housing needs. One key aspect often overlooked is that new homes are frequently built on previously inhabited properties. #rentalsupply #housingaffordability #housingcrisis
