I may have done my most @StrongTowns thing ever yesterday. On the final day of a charrette in a long-disinvested place, I put up a couple boards of ideas people could adopt as their own to help make their town stronger & healthier. Let locals live strong and healthy. Pick one:
Jenny Bevan created this widely distributed A/B comparison of local historical form vs modernist donut.
An Ohio school banned cellphones. Turns out students actually like it: With the new cellphone policy this year, Olivia said her friends engage with each other more and talk about things everyone can relate to. "Everything's just more positive now," she said.
Architects are the worst sort of sophists. They explain that the vertical proportions of the windows and the transparent storefront make this barren black box fit in to the street. Note the drawing they use doesn't show details or color, which would allow anyone to see the BS

The #1 priority of city governments should be re-legalizing these buildings. The “Mixed-Use Multifamily Theory of Everything” says that making these buildings LEGAL again solves for: 1) localism 2) small business opportunity 3) affordability 4) walkability

Americans will try to say that they are richer than Europeans, but I counter with the fact that being rich is completely meaningless if you're absolutely miserable.

@ADayInTheSlife Civic Center Drive would be amazing for shops and restaurants with views of the river, yet its almost all government offices
These fuckers have a 1.0 star rating on Google, and they totally deserve it. (if you went to Ohio State you know what I’m talking about) #ohiostate
It’s time to normalize aimlessly driving around rural Ohio and discovering random towns as a hobby
Silly Trads! If they were smart like me they would understand that throwing up a lifeless cardboard box which will fall apart in 20 years is much more profitable in the short term! I love living in a wasteful degenerate civilization!
Remember guys that the data centers are completely tax abated so we the citizens don’t get any of the benefits yet still get saddled with all the costs.

The modern mind is so depressingly small. All these bug men can think of is "muh lost productivity". They have no concept of the natural wonder and beauty of creation. They think only about their worthless numbers in their little spreadsheets. Spiritually bankrupt and pathetic.

What, street vending? That has been normal in cities for thousands of years.

Our city government prioritizes the out-of-state rich folks pouring in to these neighborhoods at the expense of long time residents under the false ideology that bringing rich folks in to poor communities helps the economy. This is false.

How dare there be a single school still teaching people how to design buildings that don't induce pain the moment you look upon them! Ah yes, billionaire donor corruption indeed!
@holz_bau Notre Dames architecture school is so bad. A five year program but only teaching classical style… A mandated year abroad but only in central Rome… All this is a reflection of their billionaire donors tastes not a desire to teach relevant architecture in any meaningful way.

Would you live here? (The house & the street it’s on would be impossible to build in most towns around the world. Should we go back to favouring #GentleDensity not banning it?)
@seandsweeney From what I can tell, it must be a 6 unit front 6 unit back . So a long building . You saved 125k on elevator and 200-250 on underground parking. This would be a money maker in Chicago . Unfortunately, zoning wouldn't allow it.
@hubbahubba513 Plenty of other buildings that you can live if you can’t stomach that thought.

28/ But who cares about reality when there are lofty moral sentiments to uphold and "dark forces" of "xenophobia" and "racism" to combat?
"Tiktok is shit and should be made illegal" Tiktok users: "Nooooo!!! It is a powerful tool for GenZ to share the stories of marginalised groups and a platform for the Left to organise and-" "Twitter is shit and should be made illegal" Twitter users: "I agree"
@JonHusted This should make republicans happy, sadly.
@JonHusted Our entire educational system has to change. Sadly, the wrong people are in charge of changing it. Taking bribes won't help the situation, so you need to resign.
Went to the Short North tonight, walked around a bit and man, High Street is unbearable. Between the motorcycle noise, the cars popping, loud bass music coming from cars, and drivers' hostility to pedestrians....no thanks.
Liberal white women will look you straight in the eyes and tell you that these guys are the biggest threat to their safety.

You think housing prices will keep going up because you've seen it all your life. But this is a historic anomaly that is likely to reverse soon: Prices might start shrinking in many places. This thread is the case against investing in housing:
