Continuing my #ecdevflashcards series with laying out how DIFs work in Massachusetts. The captured incremental tax revenue is not restricted to hard costs— DIFs *can* be a dynamic tool for stabilization in downtowns experiencing rapid growth.

Was very moved by the newest art installation at City Hall this morning. *We belong here together guided by the same stars* - by local Boston artist Yu-wen Wu.

Zooming out from the day-to-day to examine the systems that underlie our status quo. So far I’ve found teams at @CityOfBoston to be pretty good at “imagining” — we need to get stronger at trying more experiments and scaling the ones that work. Thanks @MitchWei for the inspo ✨

Multi-tenant or “shared spaces” can help business communities mitigate rising operating cost burdens, reduce the threat of commercial displacement, and provide platforms for emerging entrepreneurs while adding increased vibrancy to the neighborhood. #ecdevflashcards #cowork

@PlanningAutumn Shirley Ave in Revere, MA! Transit accessible, a public beach, a grocery store, tons of awesome markets, some small green space, amazing food (and coffee!!) and awesome business owners/neighborhood.

What's a great neighborhood in a city with less than 500,000 people?

I love public libraries because they are built on the principle that books are so important and so necessary to human flourishing that access to them cannot depend on your income.

Doing my best to lay out economic development concepts flashcard style! I’m keeping a running list of terms that might make a community member or emerging developer go “hmm.” What should I add to the list?! instagram.com/nimbleground

Mise en place 📍 (French pronunciation: ​[mi zɑ̃ ˈplas]) is a French culinary phrase which means "putting in place" or "gather" In OUR kitchen it means getting ready for some serious placemaking on the Ave!
