Not totally sure how this Paul Rudolph creation could get converted to housing, but maybe my architect friends can offer ideas. Bonus question from the BBJ photo here -- what do many people see when they look at the protruding balcony feature? https://t.co/hD5GCx0jp7?

Got to hand it to podcaster Ben Kittleson for his warmup and closing questions — movie last watched, book I’m reading, first concert I attended — and choosing my outro music. For an interview about #zoning. https://t.co/wvRy35sbOo @GovLovePodcast

It's been so gratifying to interview mayors from around the world. This one is with the chief executive of Fairbanks, Alaska, where challenges like affordable housing and climate resilience land a little differently. https://t.co/1MNi6I5Rrs

Just stepping off the stage at APA #NPC26 Detroit, concluding another smash-hit mayors panel, Michigan edition. Thank you to Mayor David LaGrande (Grand Rapids) Mayor Christopher Taylor (Ann Arbor) Mayor Sheldon Neeley (Flint).

It was a great conversation about affordability, climate resilience, and my personal favorite, the land value tax! This is the third year in a row we’ve brought together municipal leaders at the nation’s premiere urban planning conference, as part of the Mayor’s Desk series
