Pandemic relief is over, and evictions are back - The Boston Globe "A new report estimates that eviction rates in Massachusetts, after falling sharply amid COVID-19 rent relief programs, have returned to at least pre-pandemic levels." bostonglobe.com/2024/01/18/bus…

For decades Newton, MA had no by-right zoning for multi-family housing. All MF development required special permits or rezoning - political votes of city council. Tonight Newton passed reform. MF allowed by-right in several village centers. Win for state + local leadership!

E-cars were 9% of car sales in 2022, and the e-car fleet was under 17 million worldwide. E-bike sales were at 275 million. Politicians and policy-makers, stop ignoring, or underestimating, e-bikes. Via @Treehugger #EBikeEffect treehugger.com/stop-ignoring-…

Just making sure @SenBruceTarr is aware of the @MBTA_CR which runs hourly trips to Gloucester, departing from North Station just a short walk down the road from The State House. It’s also only $2.40 right now thanks to the Sumner Tunnel diversion mitigations! Enjoy! 🚆 😃

Elon Musk announced that he will restrict the term "cisgender" on twitter, declaring it a slur. This is a recycling of anti-gay tactics, which declared "straight" a slur. "Cis" has a long history, and I examine it here. Subscribe to support my work. erininthemorning.com/p/cisgender-is…

Never forget that when Seoul, Korea removed the Cheonggyecheon expressway in 2003 and replaced it with a restored stream, 1000 acre park and improved transit, not only did it transform the city’s public life & economic success, but the traffic got better. The traffic got BETTER.

Massive, massive win for transgender people out of my birth state of Louisiana. Louisiana becomes only the 3rd red state to beat back a total gender affirming care ban for trans teens. Activists there should be truly proud. This was not an easy task.

Many suburbanites benefit from implicit housing & transportation subsidies as well as unpriced environmental externalities. Also homevoters in low-density, high-amenity urban neighborhoods refuse to allow more housing, driving up rents. All policy/political choices.

Good news! Construction has started on the Dorchester extension to the Neponset River Greenway Trail! Work should last about two years. When completed this will bypass the Expressway offramp at Morrissey Blvd.
