@charlesincities @charlesincities We moved our family from US suburbia to London, UK - kids were 14, 10 and 7 when we moved

@adventuremann Not sure, but the UK has effectively cut all travel out of London and the south. Unsure about other parts of the UK...

@Espngreeny You mean like last year when Strasbourg went 8 and 1/3 in game 6??

I had the opportunity to talk with @BernieJMitchell and Zejlko Crnjaković about why I'm passionate about urban #neighbourhoods & local business and how we are working to help our neighbours and community thrive! https://t.co/9qojXAVc1H

@TweetingThomas_ @counter_culture I just opened a bag of Hologram. Come share a pour over when you get home bruv.

@GregStohr @MattBrubakerNC This is not a political statement , just a fact: I literally moved to a new country in the last six months and had to prove that I had enough money to support my family for a reasonable time in order to obtain a visa. It did not seem like they were asking too much of me.

[David Brown @davidlbrown4]

@francispatani Super fascinating.

@OakCityCRE @francispatani @midtown_bike @EricLambPE I’m sure, like in any industry/field, there are those who believe they can do some good while making a reasonable profit (so they can stay in business) and there are those who care only about themselves and maximising short term profits.

[David Brown @davidlbrown4]

@francispatani @midtown_bike @OakCityCRE @EricLambPE Because we actually care about our city and the world!(?)

@francispatani @MattBrubakerNC @maryannbaldwin @moderatepolicy I had an idea once to add “greenway” like paths between houses to aid in pedestrian connectivity

[David Brown @davidlbrown4]

@francispatani @MattBrubakerNC @maryannbaldwin @moderatepolicy Our neighbourhood has many streets that do not allow automobile through-traffic, but allow for “connectivity” of pedestrians, bikes, and scooters. Gives the kind of connectivity we seek for walk-ability, but the safety and quiet of a cul-de-sac.

[David Brown @davidlbrown4]

@francispatani Dude YES! Let me know if you need some more good examples. Thought about our convos a ton since we’ve been here...

Create the type of company you'd want to work for.

@MattBrubakerNC Not a great builder imo - down and dirty - not sure how these homes/subdivisions will age... don’t think I would buy one 🤷🏻‍♂️
