The burbs are trying to reinstate parking minimums near Metra stations and busy Pace routes. Don’t let them. Submit an “opponent” witness slip below.

This is a bold position for a voter guide to take

Girl I Guess told people not to vote for Kamala in 2024. Look what that got us. Nobody should give this "guide" the time of day.

I had the wonderful opportunity to speak in front of a crowd of fellow urbanists at the 2025 Big Tent Urbanist Holiday Party. There is much work left to do to ensure Chicago remains a city where anyone can afford to stay in. Check out my updated platform page at drakefor10.com!

GO NAVY!!! BEAT ARMY!!!

Thrilled to be endorsed by Abundant Housing Illinois - an organization I work closely with to make housing more affordable across Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois. #chicago #illinois #cookcounty #urbanism #housing

Abundant Housing Illinois is proud to announce our endorsement of Drake Warren for Cook County Board of Commissioners, District 10! Drake understands that tackling our housing shortage is essential for reducing poverty and improving quality of life for Cook County residents. 🏘️

What happens when you downzone? Our new open-access research paper in @findingspress.org investigates effects of decades of downzoning in Chicago. Findings: —Downzoned areas added 1/7th of the new units as comparable non-downzoned areas; —Downzoned areas became more white & were more expensive.

Of all the major cities in the United States, Chicago provides the greatest value, with robust amenities and culture without correlated housing costs. But if Chicago wants to retain that status, some things need to change. op-ed by me, Stef, and Jasmine (co-leads for @abundanthousingil.bsky.social)

Chicago and Illinois urbanists have a lot to celebrate as we close out 2025, so we’re co-hosting a party! 🥳 Please join us at Haymarket Brewing on December 17 for a celebration of our wins at the second annual Big Tent Urbanist holiday party! 🏘️🚇 www.eventbrite.com/e/big-tent-u...

Is it time for a ballot measure to fast-track affordable housing in Chicago? Marisa Novara and Daniel Kay Hertz highlight NYC’s recent pro-housing wins — and how Chicago’s ADU fight shows we’re moving in the opposite direction. 🏘️ 🗳️ www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/13/o...

Want to learn more about the parking requirements impacted by the transit bill? Check out this blog post written by AHIL Lead Steven Vance! chi.streetsblog.org/2025/10/31/i...

Everyone’s talking about Illinois’ big transit bill, but here’s what you might’ve missed: it also eliminates parking mandates near high-frequency transit stops statewide! ✨🥳 What counts as high-frequency transit? 🚇 Within 1/2 mile of rail stations and bus hubs 🚍 Within 1/8 mile of bus corridors

Illinois adopted parking reform in transit adjacent areas this morning The bill, SB2111, goes to the Governor cc @steelwolfwc.bsky.social @parkingreform.org

Illinois transit is going to be bigger and better than ever! SB2111 passed!!!

It actually happened! Oh my! (I’m not crying, you’re crying!)
