A MASSIVE and very well organized new addition to our #UrbanismBookClub, “The Sustainable Urban Design Handbook” by @nicolarco & Kaarin Knudson via @routledgebooks. I’m intrigued by the framework approach to the book’s contents. This looks like one I’ll be pulling off the shelf.

Thoroughly enjoyed being interviewed by Jeff Wood on the @theoverheadwire podcast from @StreetsblogUSA. Talked about importance of housing and density (it affects everything we try to do...) and our newly published Sustainable Urban Design Handbook.

"If we want sustainable places, we need a whole bunch of people who are strong advocates for certain issues. But also we also have to understand the importance of having synergy with other sustainability goals." https://t.co/4GFVUcZiYK

[Nico Larco @nicolarco]

Enjoyed talking to Kea Wilson from @StreetsblogUSA about about why people in #transportation need to pay attention to #urban #design and all of the different aspects of making a place #sustainable!

[David Zipper @DavidZipper]

A group of San Franciscans realized that they can disable Waymo and Cruise robotaxis by placing a traffic cone on the vehicle's hood.

They're now encouraging others to do it: "Hell no, we do not consent to this."
