Montreal's pedestrian streets - in just three years, there are now 11 of them! - are coveted by the Buisness community and touted by the Tourism Board. No one wants to live in or visit a city that is choked with traffic, causing annoyance, air and noise pollution. But a city…
No city in North America is doing street transformations into people-places as well as Montreal. None. It’s not even close. Every city can learn from this. Every. Single. One. The key lesson is that it ISN’T JUST ABOUT WHAT YOU TAKE AWAY (cars). It’s also about WHAT YOU ADD!

Detroit had regional electric interurban trains between 1900-1930ish but they got stuck in downtown congestion. Subways were thoroughly researched between 1909-1970's but never built. It is time to fund it like we do roads, without a regional millage vote. freep.com/story/opinion/…

Does your city REALLY want to attract & keep families living in your downtown & urban places? Then get real about what it will take. 3 KEYS, in THIS ORDER: 1) ensure family-sized homes (2-3 bedrooms) 2) build local daycare, schools & supports 3) design places & streets for kids
Instead of a half-surface parking lot in Downtown Portland, we can reimagine the block to have 82 mixed-income housing units, 15,000 sq ft of retail, and 30,000 sq ft of office space. Or, it could remain as 60 parking spots…
