economic development + urban planning + real estate development to make great places for all

[Alisa Pyszka @Pyszkaa]

My colleague, Kim Zeuli, has been discussing #resilience for years. We challenge cities to approach #economicdevelopment and resilience thoughtfully. Cities will need to address those left behind before they can jump forward. https://t.co/SE4zsOvFbd

[Mary Chalifour @marychalifour]

.@icicorg's Kim Zeuli talks #resiliency. After a disaster, how long does it take to get back to normal?

[Alisa Pyszka @Pyszkaa]

Thank you ⁦@flypdx⁩. These are almost as brilliant as the parking stall monitors in the garage.

"From Lynchburg to Newark to Vancouver, developers are bringing long-neglected neighborhoods back to life and in the process providing new economic and cultural opportunities to local residents. https://t.co/Vko3cLBrDz #cities #realestate #housing

@iamstevenpedigo Catching up - @KristinEberhard did amazing work on this subject. Huge issue is no city manager for a city of 650,000. https://t.co/rjt7Fztu5t

[Stephanie Kelton @StephanieKelton]

FDR, MLK and others deserve credit for the idea. I just thought it made good policy. https://t.co/J8IgDfnmDB # via @HuffPostPol

More supply = more affordable housing. @pdx4all https://t.co/TU3F6q4TwJ

Behold: A sudden decline in greed! Landlords have seen the error of their ways. Or maybe, just maybe, supply is pushing prices down. Free-falling New York rents plunge 12 percent in Queens https://t.co/nfhNmqHLIV

Excellent and tangible strategy by the team to build wealth of existing residents. "increase the community’s ownership position through financial and educational support to small businesses, entrepreneurs and potential commercial property owners." https://t.co/IMXAbAha8t

Equitable #ecdev in #Phoenix? Why, yes. More here: https://t.co/KEBSbeEVP4 cc: @Pyszkaa #cities #inclusion

[Steven Pedigo @iamstevenpedigo]

Yes! More #cities need to do this. Grow your own: #Austin may shift #incentives focus from luring corporations to helping #smallbiz: https://t.co/TLERAIRgs5 cc: @Richard_Florida @Pyszkaa #ecdev

81% of Portland's residential property is single-family residential. We must allow more density to solve our housing crisis @pdx4all Take action for change https://t.co/Gq6VBMG6Vq

This brief video is truly unbelievable. Keep fighting #YIMBYS https://t.co/LwslnNJja2

It's astonishing that these are $1million+ homes.

@kintaris @TristanACooper @markdelaneysays As a proud Oregonian, it is truly only "slightly exaggerated" - we don't have whales flying in the sky.

[City Observatory @CityObs]

Portland doesn’t really want to make housing affordable https://t.co/vqEVHYirDU

[Alisa Pyszka @Pyszkaa]

Future retail is not about filling space - it is about community. "To recruit tenants for Platform LA, they thought about the stores and restaurants that would attract them personally." https://t.co/QqgpulWBhr

"In order to boost local economies, universities should stop seeing themselves only as educators, and start seeing themselves as platforms for local economic activity." cc: @iamstevenpedigo

[Steven Pedigo @iamstevenpedigo]

Exactly. We've been saying this for years: "If you want economic growth & jobs, stop throwing #incentives at #Amazon & invest in businesses that are already there." https://t.co/01dNQTOrYC #cities #ecdev cc: @Pyszkaa

[Steven Pedigo @iamstevenpedigo]

A new study finds that #rentcontrol policies often increase rents, reduce rental stock and fuel #gentrification. https://t.co/eNZOsdpbZC #cities #realestate
