Your occasional reminder, as we are debating the intricacies of Donald Trump's pulmonary condition, that half the children in America did not actually attend school today.

Gehl wants to know how you've been using public space during the pandemic. We'll use the research to advise policymakers and public officials on how to continue to make cities for people while staying safe. Please take 3 minutes to share your experience! bit.ly/gehlcovid
It’s not about the place, but the approach Copenhagen has taken to prioritize people on their streets. A pleasure to work with @StreetsblogNYC @DavidSimatGehl @IslandPress @citiesforpeople on this oped
We’ve all got a case of Copenhagen Syndrome. But here’s why, as @Jddnyc and @DavidSimatGehl show us in this new op-ed:

How can we push #visionzero to focus more on the life we want on our city streets? We penned some thoughts here: medium.com/vision-zero-citie… @ewawestermark @5km_h #transalt @citiesforpeople

"In a starkly divided country, corporate pandering is the last bastion of bipartisanship, an activity enjoyed by both Democrats and Republicans at every level of government," writes @DKThomp on HQ2 on.theatln.tc/jz5YcEc
Democracy moves slowly. Authoritarianism moves fast. The tech sector moves fast. Food for thought from @biancawylie discussing the Sidewalk Labs development in #Toronto #AoCB2018
Amsterdam wasn’t always a global bike capital - people advocated and fought for their steets @Charlotschans @Stipoteam #AoCB2018
Walmart buildings feel cheap and it turns out they they only live as long as a house cat @JoeUrbanThree 🙁 #riphousecat - We need sensible #publicpolicy that takes a longer- term view. #aocb2018
Infill development uses a fraction of the land and generates much more $ for cities than big boxes like Walmart - @JoeUrbanThree putting numbers to what we feel. #citiesforpeople need #publicpolicy and #taxpolicy that prioritizes quality development #AOCB2018 @AoCB2018
We are they...to drive structural change that unlocks the potential of everyone we must transcend the idea of ourselves as individuals. @indy_johar getting to the root of it @AoCB2018 #AoCB2018

How dare you, @nydems?! Smearing @CynthiaNixon (whose kids are being raised Jewish, BTW) as soft on anti-Semitism & lying about her position on Israel in order to fearmonger and shill for votes is a shameful dead-end for our party. #BeyondThePale #Jews4Cynthia – at Brooklyn, NY

Trump Administration is detaining babies and toddlers in “tender age shelters” who may never be reunited with their parents. Babies. Babies. You have brought shame to the nation. We are better than this.
Julia D Day retweeted
Here’s another zero tolerance program for the Trump Administration: EVERY child, EVERY baby has to be reunited with his or her parents. No excuses. Make it happen.
Looking forward to discussing the future of our streets with @van_alen @citiesforpeople

Redevelopment is about more than buildings and transit. It's about people. Creating opportunity and hope for all people. #WeAllThrive
