Take a look at the historical multifamily production chart. The first half of the period, there's a lot of green. The second half of the period, a lot of red. Zoom in on the green mountains and you'll find federal policies carefully designed to make the line go up.

This is why that’s the right idea

This is why parking reform is so important

very excited for NITA but this is the most american gov brained way possible to merge three agencies come on

HUGE NEWS. We have a state bill; SB3478 - SCA1. Under the bill, CMAP will develop a blueprint for a bike and pedestrian-prioritized street network including 450 miles of safe, slow streets in Chicago and surrounding communities. WE NEED YOU TO SUBMIT WITNESS SLIPS. ilga.gov/Senate/heari... (1/3)

Meanwhile bike fuel prices have not changed at Costco.

thinking it could be cool to see if there's a way to create an interactive map showing if properties have gained or lost value since they were built adjusted for inflation. I always wonder if the surge in prices recently is properties catching up to the trend from before suburbs/white flight

I'm losing it at this delivery robot getting absolutely smoked by the Brightline train in Florida 🤖🚅

It's time to build, Illinois.

Bikes don’t bring any business to Clark street

It's time for an all bus lane Lake Shore Drive.

It’s time for a bus lane on Lakeshore Drive

God damn Chicago 🔥

Exit interview with Josh Mark, the recent chief of staff for the sustainable transportation-friendly 47th Ward. His main takeaway: For bold bus and bike project to succeed in the long run, they need to be useful enough to attract a critical mass of users.

If you are in Andersonville, Edgewater, Ravenswood, or Uptown we really want you here for this! Ashland has a lot of room to accommodate new neighbors and many people would love to live this close to Clark street!

On March 31, the 40th Ward is hosting a community meeting regarding new homes proposed for 5636-40 N. Ashland. 🏘️

It’s time to BUILD! Today, we’re launching our letter campaign in support of Governor Pritzker’s comprehensive pro-housing initiative. 🏘️ Sending a letter to your legislator takes approximately 30 seconds; add your name today! actionnetwork.org/letters/pass...

send a letter to your reps to tell them you support the BUILD plan for letting people live in Illinois

my mom will join my dad on his work trips to chicago and take the Rosemont circulator to the blue line to meet me in the loop to hangout and it's the sweetest thing she does she had never rode the KC streetcar or any busses as an adult until she went with me because I'm passionate about it

My parents said they want to learn how to use public transportation so they can visit me more often. It’s so nice when boomer parents finally learn your love language (using transit).

rip to a real one, he just wanted to make assessments work fairly

no clue how much it would cost but I'd definitely start with this

- create a cross-city regional rail connection through downtown Chicago #BuildtheTunnel - separate Metra trains from freight traffic and electrify the lines - eliminate all slow zones on the L - automate the the Blue Line - build enough housing near transit to support millions more people

I've seen enough, let's get this rolled out citywide asap!

First batch of CTA Smart Streets data for 2026. $343k through the end of Feb, around double 2025's pace. Expanded pilot zone has added a lot of bike lane and expired meter ticketing along Clark, Halsted, and Lincoln on the north side.

I’m thrilled to become the Democratic Nominee for the Cook County Board of Commissioners in the 10th District. This campaign was shaped by the hands of hundreds of people who made our victory possible.

I've seen enough. Drake Warren will be the Cook County Commissioner of District 10!

The big day has arrived. There are just a few hours left until the polls close this evening. Cast your vote, and don’t forget to tag us in a photo to be featured! Let’s win this. #chicago #illinois #vote #politics #election

Congrats to Raja Krishnamoorthi on his new position as guest contributor to the Chicago Tribune editorial board

we gotta get on this in Chicago asap

eternal glory to the people’s republic of mamdanistan

TRIBUNE ENDORSED. The Chicago Tribune endorsed Nick Uniejewski over the incumbent for State Senate. Springfield doesn’t need more of the same.

Welcome back witness slip warriors 😤 The ILGA is back in session and there are bills to pass. Get those fingers warmed up for these four bills that are now in committee By 4pm, Wednesday 2/17: - Please sign as "Self" in the firms/business field; - "Proponent;" and - "Record of Appearance only" 1/5

📣 Witness Slips needed #HB2454 would make cyclists intended users of roadways. Instead of just permitted. This would hold cities accountable for hazardous conditions that kill an injure cyclists. ilga.gov/House/hearin...

calling it now, Nick is gonna go far in politics

The Chicago Tribune just endorsed our campaign for State Senate. Affordability is the fight of our generation. Housing costs. Grocery prices. Property taxes. Families deserve a senator focused on bringing costs down—not protecting the status quo. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/02/12/e...

RFK Jr: I'm not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.

This is a bold position for a voter guide to take

If your website favicon looks like this, you probably don't represent the needs of your community.

I’m not totally sure how to address this but apparently I’m getting kicked out of ICE rapid response for the moment because I’m allowing press ridealongs, with an extremely strict condition that no other observer be identified. Lots of observers have allowed ridealongs and they benefit us.

Sixteen years in MN and I’ve never set foot in this miraculous place: a midwestern dive bar where everyone is Hmong, with an attached pool hall, EDM stage, and where you can order pho until midnight. The idea people would want to kick immigrants out of this region is insane.

xbox live took stronger action against jeffrey epstein than the entire us government

When the Sun-Times hyperlinks every single receipt in your spicy LTE... 😌🌶️ Incredible writing from AHIL member Neville debunking the claims presented by Edgewater Residents for *Restricting* Development in their lawsuit to stop the Broadway rezoning.

back on my bullshit

Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Greg Bovino. They must all resign and be held accountable.

The first cable car service in Chicago began on this day in 1882. Before cable cars, streetcars were generally pulled by horses.
