"The quality of a city can be judged by the number of people who *stop* being pedestrians, and decide to sit down & stay awhile."—Jan Gehl @citiesforpeople (quoted in #Straphanger; photo: #Barcelona)
See Just How Much of a City's Land Is Used For Parking Spaces buff.ly/2uOBQ4p. Read about this great tool, What The Street?, that is being used to visualize how cities are utilizing their space. #completestreets
Great partnership between @ppccedu and @MountainMetro that will increase transit use, reduce congestion, and create life-long #transit users! Yay! gazette.com/new-fee-will-g…
For @jillgaebler Yes!
Well this is no surprise, but a good reminder: adding greenery and nature into urban areas makes them healthier. placemakers.com/2018/04/03/hea… @NoMaParksDC
The @COSCityCouncil has unanimously passed a fabulous Bike Master Plan, which lays out a roadmap of bike infrastructure improvements throughout #COSprings. #mandate #bikes gazette.com/bike-master-pl…
Serious flaws in proposed Banning Lewis Ranch annexation amendment - more thoughtful citizen views on new episode of Town Square #podcast studio809radio.com/town-square-ba…
I agree that we shouldn’t ideologically vilify those who live in suburbs, especially those with limited options. But we SHOULD be candid about the proven costs, consequences, subsidies & expectations that have propped up the suburban option for a half-century. HT @IanLockwoodPE
Is #ColoradoSprings giving up the farm to develop the ranch? New #podcast roundtable discussion: Can we use the Banning Lewis Ranch annexation agreement to assure a smartly planned city of the future that pays for itself? studio809radio.com/town-square-ba…
Physical activity is not just exercise time & deliberate recreation. It’s about ways of life. Which is why we need to radically rethink how we design and build the streets that form the backbone of our cities. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
To be an #OlympicCity #COSprings first needs to be a #HealthyCity which is the opposite of a #CarCity with a street ironically named #MotorCity #IdentityCrisis

The key problem of sprawl is auto-dependency. Urbanist @BrentToderian on building fiscally sustainable cities. #CityCenterSeries
To build fiscally sustainable cities with a high quality of life we must enhance multi-modal transportation infrastructure. #transitmatters
