SLC’s relationship to the mountains is what people who’ve never been to Denver imagine Denver is like.

@cornoisseur Oh that’s true, they probably would ever agree on a slate of reapproved exteriors.

I’d think that if you did get pre approved plans though it’d actually reduce cost

@new_alexkeaton @PaulPop74734242 @BlockClubCHI The survey is across 5 cities Austin, Portland, Chicago, DC and San Fran.

If you had read it, you’d see that Portland residents in particular site fears of cars.

AI responses aggregate data but here ya go

@new_alexkeaton @PaulPop74734242 @BlockClubCHI But also anecdotally that is generally the response I get. I don’t bike as much in the city myself because I don’t want to get yeeted by a car like my cousin did. Put him in the hospital for like 2 weeks.

Thinking about chicago congestion pricing for a second:

Lots of advocates seem to want to toll an area near downtown, in a cargo cult attempt to replicate NYC congestion pricing. But that approach is a really terrible fit to where traffic in Chicago actually is - mostly along the Kennedy expressway.

A real, useful congestion charge would place a really high price on 90/94 travel, a slightly lower price on outer 90 travel, and a similar low-ish price on the Stevenson (i55) and Eisenhower (290)

[Sox Fan @LakeviewBlake]

@PaulPop74734242 @BlockClubCHI Yea because they don’t want to get by a car… because it’s not safe to bike in the city without dedicated lanes

[Sox Fan @LakeviewBlake]

@1980Bvchi @BlockClubCHI Maybe I’m just seeing it wrong in the photo but it looks like they have little front setbacks like the ones by me in Lakeview.

[Sox Fan @LakeviewBlake]

@questionableway I believe a while back someone had made a graph showing a plurality of uber rides in the city were between the northside and the loop even though those are the most transit dense areas we have

[Sox Fan @LakeviewBlake]

Waymo coverage over one of the most transit oriented areas of the city lol

[Trent 🇺🇸 @tnertz]

Nice future @Waymo coverage area

@BonelliSays said “mapping primarily east of I-90 from the South Loop to Wrigleyville”

Say what you will but Lori oversaw multiple credit upgrades in her tenure. I’d like to see the credit rating be a key issue in this upcoming election however I get that’s not a particularly sexy issue

Read my latest OpEd co-authored with nuclear champion and subject matter expert @MadiHilly.

"In an era defined by electricity demand, the states that build the next generation of nuclear capacity will lead the next generation of growth and prosperity. Illinois can lead, but only if it chooses to. Illinois should be the obvious choice for new nuclear opportunities and investments."

@cornoisseur Need Pritzker to simply outlaw setbacks

Stop the demolitions.

No more vacant lots.

No more land banking.

One possible solution...Only issue demolition permits together with new construction permits.

A spokesperson for Loyola acknowledged the demolition permit “has raised questions” about the site’s future.

Once complete, it plans to improve the site with “upgraded fencing and new landscaping.”

Preservation Chicago Executive Director Ward Miller said there was a push to make the building a Chicago landmark.

Miller said Preservation Chicago regularly hears from residents accusing Loyola of “land banking” sites, or holding on to vacant land. It’s a practice some residents believe will happen at 1224 W. Loyola, as the university has yet to announce development plans.

“It’s really tragic that we’re losing a nice building that’s got a lot of history,” Miller said. “Demolition is often times the answer with these university expansions.”
