Supporting #walkable communities relates to leadership, urban governance, sustainable development, and planning opportunities.
Here are the top 10 political benefits of designing and building human-scale cities and towns.

Cape Cod is desperately in need of housing diversity. Combining ‘visual preference’ with ‘missing middle’ housing types could point the way. cnu.org/publicsquare/2022/05…

#ICYMI @MassLW recently endorsed @MassGovernor's #HousingChoice bill as a "step in right direction." They point out that the zoning is "stuck in a time warp" in MA & that the supermajority standard makes it hard for even "well-planned #affordablehousing projects to get approval."

Ever heard of a form-based zoning code? It's basically the opposite of the laws most cities use to regulate our built environments, and in their best form, they can be an amazing way to manage the complexity of a living, evolving place. Here's some inspo. bit.ly/2KsK2y1

Rob Brennan, President of @CapeBuilt, hosted today's event at 255 Main Street, the former Hyannis Board of Trade. In the early 1900’s, its tenants played a key role in the evolution of modern day Hyannis, and once completed, will become home to a new group of residents.

We love Jane Jacobs's idea of "import replacement"—making your place wealthier and more resilient by starting to produce things locally that residents used to have to leave town to buy. But what does it take to get that ball rolling in your own community? bit.ly/2OSYNtp

I used to tell my kids one of the secrets of life is the ability to figure stuff out. But there’s another one: the ability to grind. We creatives can be so firmly in search of the next epiphany that we neglect to grind through the things that lay foundations for epiphanies.

My advice to those who are considering diving is: go for it today… Don't wait! My mother waited until she was 81 in Bonaire. Afterwards she scolded me and asked why I hadn't gotten her in the water sooner. I recommend just doing it regardless of your age - and diving is ageless.

When we build our cities way too fast, one of the biggest casualties is good design. Whether you call it Simcityism, McUrbanism, or (our fav) Spongebuild Squareparts, let's talk about this boring architectural phenomenon and what it means for the future. bit.ly/2FZIlqy

How can we use architecture to make our places less isolating? Many of the most powerful steps we can take are also the smallest—and the most consistent with a Strong Towns approach. bit.ly/2Ane0w7

No one ever said affordable housing needed to be ugly. Creative, multi-dimensional thinking like this is the soul of the Strong Towns approach. econ.st/2A78lu0
