Excited to announce that Leonard Street Rowhouse was honored with a 2025 SARA (Society of American Registered Architects) Merit Award, an annual program recognizing the best projects across the country. Completed in 2025, the 2-unit rowhouse attempts to infuse new life into a trusted typology.

We were fortunate to support the team at Miriam, a Park Slope staple for 20 years, with their first major overhaul of the space since opening. The space was reconfigured to create an experience that feels familiar and true to the restaurant Rafi Hasid started in 2005. Project Architect: Hyuein Song

NYC’s congestion pricing is a policy miracle: Less traffic, less noise, faster transit, more business sales, more transit revenue. And it hasn’t produced the negative effects outside the cordon zone we were afraid of. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

Just thinking about what the US looked like before the EPA existed

Quick visit to the Paul Rudolph exhibit at the @metmuseum.org

New research @urbaninstitute.bsky.social shows that mass deportations would likely worsen the housing shortage by decimating the labor force. Immigrants make up >23% of the construction workforce & more in FL, TX. About half are estimated to be undocumented immigrants. www.urban.org/urban-wire/m...

Cities are not museums. Neighborhoods change. We desperately need housing, and we can't let voices like these derail needed development.

if you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery

Traffic is already down 7.5% in the first week of NYC's new #CongestionPricing plan, according to @mta.info. #CongestionPricing means better streets for everyone — commuters, pedestrians, and even drivers.

this is incredible stuff. most state DOTs would spend tens of billions on highway expansions to try and see numbers like this (that wouldn’t even pan out anyway thanks to induced demand lol)

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold. We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940. 2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

This might just be the game changer we've been waiting for - not burning fossil fuels indoors AND not upgrading electrical panels and running new wires. www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/r...

Name a show you're positive no one remembers but you:

our entire housing industry needs massive overhaul from financing to mortgages to poorly designed land use codes to a lack of comprehensive urban planning to mobility to fixing our anomalous building codes that result in poor quality yet expensive multifamily housing the status quo is broken

It's almost like the climate is changing

Horrible. I'm thinking of Spain this morning. "At least 51 people have died in Spain’s eastern region of Valencia after flash floods swept away cars, turned village streets into rivers and disrupted rail lines and highways in the worst natural disaster to hit the European nation in recent memory."

What has just happened in Valencia is terrifying, and an absolute tragedy. And it *will* happen more often, in more places, with even greater impact, as climate change tightens its grip. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/o...

Utiel, Valencia in Spain today... 😳 This is not normal

“The phenomenon is known as induced demand. The result is an endless cycle in which congestion leads to highway expansion, which invites more trips, which brings back traffic…The pattern is so inevitable that economists have dubbed it the iron law of congestion.” slate.com/business/202...

Incredible post from the best writer on Boeing that we've got. The level of willful negligence from executives on something that carries human beings through the sky is astonishing and should be a crime. Sorry I forgot to make a joke. prospect.org/infrastructu...
