@petegenovese Ruthies in Montclair, because when you zoom out and look at the full ecosystem of how they make their pizza, you see a better future in organic sustainable agriculture in NJ. From the wheatberry to the veggies, they grow and process so much of what goes into their pizza.

I'll be on the road the next few days in search of NJ's best new pizzerias. Recommendations welcome. Pizzerias must be two years old or less. Follow my saucy journey here

Yay to less parking, but yay to more public spaces, K? More density without more spaces to be social and congregate isn't good either. Just want to make sure we don't lose the plot here!
Burhan Azeem, Cambridge Vice Mayor@realBurhanAzeem
Today Cambridge has become the first city in Massachusetts to remove parking minimums for all use cases, everywhere - almost unanimously to boot too! This is a huge victory for housing affordability in our city! 🧵

@briandonohue There's usually a number of considerations that the town planner needs to present in a report before it can be deemed an area in need of redevelopment. Community opposition, if there is any, can go a long way, too.

How many #nj municipalities are run like this? Show of hands! @NJBikeWalk @njchamber @NJDeptofHealth @bikelaneuprise @BikeWalkMontc @NWKBikeExchange

Community boards empower the communities most affected by development. It's time to deploy new tools and new equations to evaluate what "benefits" a development brings. #njplanning
David Zipper@DavidZipper
Last week a Queens community board not only voted against a proposed auto dealership, it also rejected *any* new development focused on cars: “Community Board 2 opposes the development of any auto-related industry along the Northern Boulevard corridor.” sunnysidepost.com/community-boar…

It's more than just how the pie is cut up. It's how #interconnections are forged to make way for NEW programs that promote long term resilience. A holistic worldview for city govts can learn from.

The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife

@briandonohue This resort and Sandy Hook's Fort Hancock base can be for New Jersey what Governor's Island is for NYC. We want to invite the design community to help @GovMurphy and @GatewayNPS reinvigorate and reimagine it with a design competition. Can we talk?

@Photoshop it's strange to say now, but we think we liked you better when it took 10k hours to master you.

Holy shit. To “prove” he isn’t racist — Ohio U.S. Senate candidate @JoshMandelOhio put a photo of himself standing with black soldiers in his latest campaign ad. Problem is he forgot to Photoshop the hands that clearly show he put his face on the body of a black soldier

Catastrophes bring on overreaching mantras that usually fail those most affected. How will "Build back better" work when vocational training has all but disappeared from our K-12 curricula?
