Trees are the best.Increase property value,eases burden on combined stormwater systems, filters pollutants which reduces operating costs to treat the water, cools the pavement making roads last longer,provide privacy/screening. They're simply the best. archive.strongtowns.org/journal/2024/8…

I understand that new neighborhoods will not be mature enough to have wonderful canopy trees, duh. But why are they (basically) not planting any trees at all? I think I see four or five baby trees? A new neighborhood rarely looks good, but ones like this will NEVER look good.

All govt's in NS show their true colors during their second term Manufacture a deficit. Take it out on labor and ask them to accept less than what they're worth Yell it from the rooftops, the fiscal position of your employer should not impact your wages cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

NACTO
NACTO@NACTO·
How much transit priority is actually happening in the U.S. and Canada? Right now, it’s hard to tell. No one is tracking these programs across state and regional lines. NACTO is changing that with a new transit priority inventory—and we need your help.

It's 1967, the Maple Leafs just won the Stanley Cup. You and a few buddies are installing a transformer at the Victoria General. You joke, "Wonder how many Leafs Stanley Cups this transformer is going to live through before it's replaced?" Life is good. cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

We'll make no progress if transit is seen as a social service and student bus passes should be "income tested" A wealthy place is not a place where the poor are forced to have cars,but where the wealthy use public transportation We need more TDM policies like student bus passes

And, as usual, parking requirements ruin everything Like requiring 4 off-street parking spaces for a private business with huge "no parking, we will tow you and ruin your life" signs but in the process you lose 3 on-street parking spaces that are used by the public 24/7 365

One of my pet peeves is when there's street parking and private garages on the same street Pick one or the other — you get the worst of both worlds when you pick both!

Wait but I thought allowing 4 units in former single family areas would destroy property values, not raise them? It's almost like that was just a huge lie. And just down the road is a single family home for the same price. realtor.ca/real-estate/29…

Affordable new housing? The builder of this 4-plex in Kitsilano is asking a shocking $1,730 per square foot. That is, $2 million for a 1,154 sq. ft strata unit. On W. 11th, just west of Balaclava. #vanre #vanpoli #bcpoli realtor.ca/real-estate/28…
