Gentrification is really about the modern city’s failure to accommodate growth.
More ppl want to live here than current housing + transportation support. Instead of investing in new infrastructure…existing residents have been simply replaced w/newer, wealthier ones.

A significant amount of the charm embodied in the 5000 years of urbanism before WWII exists in the urban form, not the materials
We can recover the urban form even when we have to use modern materials

we should have a program that finds houses for car brained NYC nativists in car cities around the country so people who actually like cities can live in NYC
Total failure of governance that corporate sponsorship is required to run trains at a slightly less usurious rate.
Everyone is focused on who’s going to pay. What I want to know is how the true cost of a train ticket could possibly be $150. NJ Transit expenses must be insane!
Good news: Ahead of NJ TRANSIT World Cup train tickets going on sale tonight, @NJTRANSIT is lowering ticket prices to $98 without New Jersey taxpayer money.
Thank you to our partners – DoorDash, Audible, FanDuel, DraftKings, PSE&G, South Jersey Industries, and American Water – for helping make this possible.
We’re excited to host a world-class event this summer and showcase New Jersey on the global stage.
Vornado had let its buildings deteriorate so they could be declared blight, justifying a zoning exemption as part of previous Penn Station reconstruction plans.
Turns out, all they had to do was actually invest in their properties.

The Financial District would go from a cool neighborhood to walk around to one of the best in the world if they pedestrianized the streets and eliminated the on-street parking here.

If we raised the property tax bill on the blue lot to match the others on a $/SF basis, the overall tax bill for the houses/businesses would go down.
People who want to see lower property taxes should be all over this!

I don’t have an escalator but I do have an beautiful wife and anything is possible- just ask @realDonaldTrump #45–#47. It’s going to be a lift but anything is possible. @NYCMayor We want our city back- I’m coming for you. 🫵

seems like Trump admitted to the Post that he won't pick the @GrandPennNY plan to demolish MSG; instead seems likely to pick the ASTM/Halmar plan that'd demolish the MSG Theater for a new train hall (Still little known about the 3rd finalist, Fengate)

The idea of “low-tax” red states is a myth. Lower-income and working-class people pay higher taxes in Texas than in California. Middle-class people pay about the same in both states. Rich people pay much lower taxes in Texas.

It's worth noting that attempts to smear the expansion of trash containerization are being done using altered photos from a @Gothamist article.
