@SethBorman @clairebennie The best quote I heard at #CNU31 was that “Great Architecture was the world’s first victim of cancel culture”.

[Tesho Akindele @Tesho13]

Over 1,300 urbanists came to Charlotte for this years’ @NewUrbanism Congress.

This was my first time going, but it definitely won’t be my last!

Here are a few of my takeaways from the week 🧵

[CNU CLT @CNUCLT]

For those that went to the games this week! That view tho. It’s the best!

[Minor League Promos @MiLBPromos]

So best view in baseball is justified

This is crazy @KnightsBaseball

Wonderful to see Dean Doug Kelbaugh’s life honored tonight at #CNU31 #GoBlue

@JeffSpeckFAICP @NewUrbanism @Tesho13 Agree 💯! Last time I was in Charlotte was 12-13 yrs ago. The downtown has come a long way and was quite enjoyable. Addition of public art really jumped out.

As for the congress, loved having @StrongTowns and #CNU31 together. Brought new energy, youth, and ideas in. 👏👏

[CNU CLT @CNUCLT]

Thank you all for coming to Charlotte! We loved having @NewUrbanism here. Please let us know if you come back to visit! For a final view….@WoodenRobotAle

Taiwo Jaiyeoba, City Manager, City of Greensboro: If you want to find problems, all cities & towns have problems…however, cities are the centers of excellence….no monument has ever been built & dedicated to a critic. There will always be naysayers. #CNU31 #CityPlanning

CNU and affiliated designers visited a sprawling part of Charlotte to plan the transition of a 16-acre shopping center into a mixed-use center, with connections to @unccharlotte. Temporary public space drives suburban retrofit. #CNU31 #CNULegacy @CNUCLT
