The #Thunderbots are visiting from Iowa! Just like City Tech, they define a real-world problem and create a solution...except the Thunderbots make theirs out of LEGOS! What's the coolest thing you've ever built with Legos? @firstlegoleague #STEM #STEMeducation #Robotics #tech

Street typologies need to safely support all the modes a city offers - if scooters stay in Chicago, I hope to see a plan to make our roads better accommodate them.
