If you need some inspiration and positivity, check out @streetfilms.bsky.social blog on Montréal. So much is possible when streets are rethought as places for people www.streetfilms.org/featured/202...

Definitely my favorite parking lot to relaxing square conversion. Life is calm and beautiful in Delft

The area around Utrecht Centraal is an inspiration. World’s largest bike parking ✅ Busiest cycle route in NL ✅ New green streets ✅ Highway to canal conversion ✅ Thanks to @bicycledutch.bsky.social for showing our Texas State students what’s possible

Are there perfect streets in the world? This one in the Jordaan in Amsterdam is on my list

Rambla del Poblenou in Barcelona is like a template of a great neighborhood business street: green, lively, lovely

Thoughts on a pretty night Uptown: New Orleans streetcar is the oldest continuously operating line in the world. It’s like a naturally occurring TOD with the smell of jasmine in bloom

Fun to appear on Texas State University podcast Enlighten Me to talk about transportation in Texas and the potential for a more resilient future. My segment starts at 24:45. txstenlightenme.transistor.fm/episodes/dee...

Brass band, pedestrian street, magical spring day Honk Festival in Mueller neighborhood Austin Texas

Inspiration from Montréal: amazing interview about combing a water square, green space, cul de sac, traffic calming, & continuous sidewalks all together into a great place for people. Love this! See @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social video at: youtu.be/8lpXH7ajjUw?...

I was excited to join an all-star cast to celebrate @activetowns.bsky.social 5th Anniversary on YouTube & John’s birthday. Great conversation about how to make cities safer, healthier, and happier m.youtube.com/watch?v=DbFD...

3 facts about US transport: ped fatalities up 75% since 2010, highway lane miles up 42%, but congestion rose 144%. This is a blueprint of a failed transport. Great piece by @bethosborne.bsky.social lays out the existential problems with the system. usa.streetsblog.org/2025/02/27/1...

250 Meters of Happiness. That’s how Delhi based NGO HumanQind describes their school street that was co-created with school kids. Really blown away. Great model. Thanks to Car Free Cities Alliance for hosting. More info at www.humanqind.org

Cissy Strut coming out of the speakers. Baby asleep in the bike trailer. Great first weekend of Mardi Gras

Fun to be included in the roundup of most watched videos from 2024 from @activetowns.bsky.social . We toured Houten with Kylie van Dam to learn what makes a greenway-focused town work. Inspiring tour

I’m pretty sure the “revolutionary” “street rooms” in San Francisco are just nice pedestrian streets. I’m open to a name update if we can start integrating these into US cities nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

Nice triple embedded in Hyde Park in Austin. Legalizing doubles and triples seems like a good place to start land use reform

No better person than Robert Caro to join in for the end of this master class on power, democracy, infrastructure, & what makes great cities. So much to reflect on 99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-...

Love this trail-oriented development on a chilly day in New Orleans. Bioswale on one side & French Truck cortado on the other.

I had never heard of streetology before. Cool term. I guess this makes me a streetologist

Utrecht showing how to move from grey to green. I remember this area as kind of a lost space but now being transformed into a green place. Great before & afters from @bicycledutch.bsky.social

Interesting survey for physical activity professionals

I usually post images of good infrastructure to inspire change. Sometimes it’s useful to look around & identify the problem. School zone at lethal speed in developing area right outside Austin shows how not to design a safe school zone

Our applications are open to study sustainable transport in London & Amsterdam next summer. Open to both Texas State Univ. students & others. Lots of great streets to explore if you might be interested

New Orleans has some really good examples of green infrastructure woven into transport projects. Lafitte Greenway and Camp Street

Great overview of the evolution of superblock planning in Barcelona. I can’t stop thinking about the potential of superillas as green neighborhood islands m.youtube.com/watch?v=NSba...

Trail-Oriented Development along the Lafitte Greenway in New Orleans. Beautiful community connections

Simple, effective way to add safe pedestrian “sidewalks” quickly and inexpensively: Texas State campus

Teaching urbanism in Texas can be a challenge: “When the town center you grew up in comprises a DairyQueen & a WhataBurger along a 6 lane road, it’s hard to imagine anything different” Really enjoyed having this conversation with Mobycon. mobycon.com/updates/adap...

Broad Street in Oxford looking beautiful

Dinking is an art form. Delft practitioners

Compact city, blue sky: Madrid

First post over here. Love to engage about how to make cities better. My current favorite is in Barcelona where they remade a street into a green social place with a water square right in the heart of the city. Love to see more ambition like this
