Detroit #AAG was a space for reflection, a crossing of physical/theoretical borders. Delighted to receive the “Pub” award for excellence in scholarship from the @WBSSG_AAG specialty group for my article on Planning for Craft Breweries @UofRegina

I sometimes hear, "Why are you so negative? Why can't you talk about solutions instead of just problems?" THIS QCIB EPISODE IS ALL ABOUT SOLUTIONS! It's upbeat. It's optimistic. If council actually follows through, THEY'LL MAKE THE CITY BETTER! youtu.be/qTzp__j2kgU?si…

This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes broke traffic laws while riding, yet 66% of people did so when driving. And if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @carltonreid forbes.com/sites/carltonr…

We need to start thinking differently about urban spaces. In a cost of living crisis, having the ability to purchase bulk groceries without needing to own a car can be huge—not to mention the $1.50 hot dogs.
Andrew Lokenauth | TheFinanceNewsletter.com@FluentInFinance

Costco is building apartments above its stores to address the affordable housing crisis, starting early this year. Walking downstairs and getting a $1.50 hot dog gives new meaning to “affordable walkability.” It includes free membership, a rooftop pool, fitness area, gardens/ courtyards, and a community space. Los Angeles is the first residential complex with 800 apartments and a built-in store. Would you live in Costco?

The day has arrived. 45 years after pedestrians were first barricaded from crossing the street at Winnipeg’s storied Portage and Main intersection, the concrete walls have finally started coming down.
