Atlanta Howell Mill Complete Street seemed done with paving complete down to Huff Rd, but they are digging holes to put in islands to calm traffic, including preparations for one south of 17th St. This Howell Mill section is now a 2-lane road with a turn lane in some places.

Ida’s Kitchen Counter diner at 185 Mitchell. Worth the walk, drive, scooter, or MARTA ride. Wow.

High rise over a Chick Fil A. Atlanta needs this.
Permit was issued yesterday to convert the 24 story office building at 500 N Michigan Ave in Chicago to 320 new residential units. Commonwealth Development Partners out of Greenwich, CT will redevlop the property into residential.

Imagine a redeveloped East Potomac Park with Copenhagen-style bridges linking it to Southwest Washington and the Wharf. Preserve some green space, sure, but also build a lot of new stuff. No golf course!
I’d prefer stuff like this (alongside some interior green space). I can’t think of a worse place for a golf course. Use the land to its full potential.

Bus bulbous and green paint making its way down Boulevard south of the Beltline Solid green where there’s no buffer which will help with visibility / awareness

I would have voted "no" on this. But unlike transit expansion, there's no requirement for a vote on highway projects. MARTA expansion has to go through often bitter, racially-charged referendum votes for approval. Which it usually loses. Highway construction just happens. – at Atlanta, GA

Remember this when you say you don’t have time to vote.
North Carolina A&T students marched an hour each way to vote on the first day of early voting after their campus polling site was removed by the Guilford County Elections Board. Proud 👏🏽

Lots of people drive cars in the US but that doesn't mean they want to. Car fanatics want us to believe that car-dominance is because customers love cars. But choices reveal desires only when there are real options. usa.streetsblog.org/2026/10/…
