Coming up with ideas to improve your city is easy compared to implementing them. Implementation requires patience/persistence & outreach tools that inspire community leaders to action. The CBExchange (https://t.co/ysXwUFmwpX) is known for inspiring leaders to action. Join us!

@kevinklink @JeffSpeckAICP @BrentToderian @NewUrbanism @MICDdotORG I’ll throw out the @CityBuildingEx’s CityBuilding Express. Four days of intensive touring and discussion (on a bus! 🚌) leading up to CNU. You’re immersed into developments and cities with access to developers and decision makers. Check out the #CBX2019 tweets from last week.
