This is an interesting tweet. I also think what North Americans sometimes perceive as "banning cars" is, in quite a few European towns and cities, building underground parking.

Right. A lot of the "very nice" European city centers and towns depend on being able to cheaply bury and tunnel things.

LOVE this one. So does everybody else on Wall St. apparently, because I can never find a seat

Still seems like when you net out the wilderness, they’re probably about even

There's also the question of what does "sidewalk" mean in Japan. I suspect they actually only installed them under the sidewalks of arterials. Some residential streets have things that look like sidewalks (more so than in Tokyo), but many don't...they're essentially "woonerfs"

Just because it used to have that many people doesn't mean it's zoned for it now. Philly didn't lose 600k people because buildings got torn down, it lost them because household sizes shrunk...because tiny row houses houses that once had five or six people now have two or three

Hard to believe that this type of service is a better use of MTA funds than simply running more buses at night.

I assume they're referring to being so hostile to development that the East New York rezoning – to build affordable housing that these vouchers can be used at – was mapped to avoid touching Inez's district much

"It is difficult to reconcile unfettered warehouse growth..." ...it's not unfettered! It's limited by bulk restrictions, parking requirements & use zoning to map them out of residential areas. They're hard to build already, hence why only one modern multistory facility has been

Amazing how NYC pols want to stop all development in industrial zones. First resi rezoning in IBZ were out. Then self-storage. Then hotels. Reynoso wanted retail & office off-limits. Now Brannan wants a special permit (that means a ban) on WAREHOUSES!

Like so much infrastructure (European-style underground trash collection!), if you can build it at reasonable costs, it's worthwhile. But North American cities cannot build underground infrastructure at reasonable costs, so we can't have nice things

Peter Cohen was against SB 35 too, though. Peter Cohen is against anything that leads to more buildings. That's just what he does...opposes building in San Francisco

"In 2019, the [NYC] Department of Buildings issued 5,151 violations to property owners for illegal apartment conversions, city records show, compared to 4,665 the year before."

NYC already has this! This is only for projects that *already meet the zoning code*

Just stumbled across a document that shows the transit expense budget increasing by 22% over five years while the national inflation rate was 6%. Starvation rations? Doesn't seem so. From NYC Council

San Francisco Mayor London Breed wants to put a measure on the ballot that would allow developers whose projects meet the city zoning code and which contain 13-20% affordable housing to sidestep discretionary approvals

?! “Amsterdam council is [proposing] to ban people who buy a newly built home within the city boundaries for renting it out for more than €1,027 per month.”

Digging into my advanced copy of ’s upcoming book on the Second Ave. Subway, and it starts out with a 💯 anecdote about infrastructure promises and lies in NYC.
