This is what a skyscraper should look like:

Sidewalk closed because we wouldn’t want pedestrians to slow down drivers making left turns as they use The Forks as a cut-through out of downtown.

this building in rotterdam is a mix of townhomes and larger point access apartment buildings in a former industrial area.

No such thing as bad weather, just shitty infrastructure!

German study confirms that good-quality cycling infra makes cycling attractive in all weather conditions: https://t.co/wBtAYxxLku

Oil and gas sector is the largest source of Canada's emissions and its emissions are increasing.

So, no - despite what you hear in all the ads for Pathways Alliance of oilsands companies blanketing radio, newspapers, tvs, billboards - they are not on a path to net zero.

When you have a protected bike lane, riding in the snow is actually really pleasant. It feels a bit like skiing. But as soon as you don’t have a bike lane, it’s white-knuckle terrifying as you fight with giant machines for any bit of clear space.

If you want to slow down vehicles as drivers approach streets with lots of pedestrians and cyclists, these giant Dutch kerbs are very effective.

They succeed in setting the tone of a street and are a match for even larger vehicles.

We can and should use these more in the UK.

I’ve always really liked the townhouses on this Wellington Crescent development (designed by IKOY in 1979). They are a nice way for a tower to integrate into a residential street and have back roof patios that connect to an outdoor pool terrace and indoor shared amenities.

Ahh finally it's the snow plowing season on our bike & foot paths again 🥰 Fast, effective and great quality service that should be provided by all winter cities at top priority. One of the best preventive healthcare methods existing 👌

Is this peak peaceful and human-centred urbanism? A grass tramway bordered by cycle lanes, footpaths, tree-lined verges and attractive mid-rise buildings. Beautiful, efficient and safe.
