@DPearsonPHL I was astonished when I visited downtown Cincinnati last year. It was filled with small closed streets like this! The waterfront is especially beautiful and the land use around their stadium complex blows ours out of the water
I've recently revamped my resume and professional presentation, and it's given me the opportunity to reflect and truly appreciate that I 🌟HAVE🌟 done a lot of really cool things.
When you are in the moment, they seem routine - but here are some of my favorites!👇
@danmcglone@jongeeting @Johnbrown1860 The best initiative I could think of would definitely involve PWDs sewer replacement program, since bumpouts and GSI can share a space, which seems like an easy win. They're certainly not common in the city but they do exist- would certainly like to see this on a larger scale
@danmcglone@jongeeting @Johnbrown1860 I'd hazard a guess that the department "most" responsible for bump outs is the survey district as they'd have to approve city plan changes, but I don't think there's any engine in the city to actually create bumpouts, unless a private developer *really* wants them.
Last week Amazon announced a new show, "Ring Nation," featuring clips from Ring doorbell cameras.
I wrote about the sprawling home surveillance apparatus in this country, the privacy risks it poses & the unwarranted sense of fear it instills in people.

@jongeeting Though your follow up tweet makes an excellent point, lol. There are definitely a good amount of ZBA variances that I've worked on for increased density (including one right now) though a lot of ZBA requests are still over things that are absolutely asinine.
@jongeeting This reads like a really cool idea, but I feel like I can count on one hand the amount of "by-right" projects I've worked on in the city so far. Maybe I'm unlucky!
