Really worth thinking about this thread as we plan for our Allston-Brighton neighborhood here in Boston. And not just keeping our eyes on city of Boston actions, but on our Massachusetts state legislature to pass h.1542 to have a commission studying single stair building reform.

Allston-Brighton Housing Action will be tabling at the Rat City Arts Festival, Saturday, August 16, 2:30-7, Charles River Speedway. Come support #Allston #RatCity artists and musicians, and then sign up for our pro-housing advocacy so we can all afford to stay here!

Really good explainer from ShelterForce: Affordable Housing Finance 101: shelterforce.org/2025/05/28/a...

This is housing produced per decade in Massachusetts (the height of each bar). The color bands show distribution between highly walkable (very low VMT) and not walkable (very high VMT). From the Terner Center at UC Berkeley, ternercenter.berkeley.edu/blog/buildin...

This is a very interesting analysis. You can use the report to look at Massachusetts data on housing production generally and in walkable neighborhoods. We have a lot of work to do!

Thanks to everyone who came to the #Allston #Brighton Anti-Displacement Workshop today and sharing your stories. And thank you City of Boston staff for putting this plan together and Charlesview for creating a wonderful space for the community to come together. www.boston.gov/departments/...

I can't believe drive-through country of Connecticut will reform parking statewide before we will.

Worried that you or neighbors and businesses you love are having to leave #Allston-Brighton because of high housing or commercial space costs? Join us for a #Boston Anti-Displacement workshop this Saturday! Register here: bosplans.org/ABAntiDispla...

Good news about Squares + Streets zoning getting approved in Roslindale Square. Looking forward to planning and zoning reform in #Allston #Brighton. Too many of our neighbors are having to leave due to housing costs. More housing, more options.

Big news for housing advocates: New polling shows strong, bipartisan support for more housing across Massachusetts—even when it means changes to neighborhood character or local control. The momentum is real, and it’s growing. www.abundanthousingma.org/resources/20...

Excellent overview article about single-stair building code reform. Let's go, Massachusetts! And Boston has a city council hearing coming up on this.

Reminder #Allston #Brighton Councilor at-Large @clrhenrysantana.bsky.social will be in the neighborhood this Friday morning for a coffee hour

Reminder, comments due May 8. Fix the IHOP Rotary Design (SFR / North Beacon intersection). This is vital for pedestrian and bicyclist access from our #Allston #Brighton neighborhood to the river. Information, talking points, and link to write a comment letter here. actionnetwork.org/letters/say-...

Spark Boston empowers Boston's 20-35 year-olds to be civic leaders. Hope to see #Allston #Brighton folks applying. We need you now and in the future! www.boston.gov/departments/...

"In 2020, [Portland, OR] approved building [middle housing] on lots zoned for single family homes... A new report from the City says, it's working. 1,400 new units built in just a few years and each one is $300,000 less expensive than a typical single family home." @nbcnews.com

Good to see AARP promoting bikes for all ages and abilities. Hope to see all of these on the streets of #Allston #Brighton!

And Boston is one of the most walkable cities in the US. Let's undo the damage we did to it by making it better still!
