Sharath from Building Beautifully has put up a video about arguably Australia's biggest urban planning success story of the past 40 years.
That's the emergence of Parramatta as one of Australia's great cities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifGwIJo7OWo
And with good reason. There's a lot that Parra has done right.
Instead of just building apartments or office towers, it's built both.
It's built enough new apartments close to public transport to keep house prices level, even as demand has grown.
It has multiple train lines, ferries, and dedicated busways, has added light rail, and is adding a metro.
It has the best public square in the whole Greater Sydney metro area in Parramatta Square.
It has a pedestrianised main street with many restaurants.
And it's cemented itself as the second CBD (central business district) for the Sydney metro area, and the main CBD for Western Sydney.
If you have any interest in urbanism and cities, it's worth visiting on a weekday just to see what it looks like when urban planning works.

New #OpenAccess #research in JTLU: “How do subway stations encourage the vitality of urban consumption amenities in Shanghai: A perspective on agglomeration”
https://jtlu.org/index.php/jtlu/article/view/2557
Authors Meixia Meng, Zihan Zeng, and Zhe Huo evaluate economic and social benefits of #subway stations, finding a positive relationship between proximity to a subway station and new investments in consumer-facing amenities, with a greater affect near stations with higher ridership.
The research includes policy implications for the spatial layout of subways and consumer amenities in large cities of developing countries.

Then vs now.
At Årstaberg station (commuter rail & LRT ring line) just outside inner city Stockholm. Big redevelopment ongoing. Low rise light industry to high rise residential (fairly urban). Including eastern entrance going from stairs & ramp up to narrow shared use path, to a a plaza with nice ramp & stairs, wide pedestrian + cycling bridge across, and a big grocery store coming!
Other side getting somewhat redeveloped soon too. -
Ten years ago today, the car-clogged, concrete sprawl of Tysons Corner became less distant from my walkable, leafy corner of Arlington when Metro finally opened the first phase of its Silver Line extension.
July 26, 2014 was a day long awaited. It had taken years of political maneuvering to get this project past obstruction and outright opposition from windshield-perspective politicians in Washington, Richmond and even Northern Virginia, followed by years of seeing the mostly-elevated segment inch through Tysons and beyond as construction delays pushed its planned opening from 2013 into 2014.
After all of that, boarding the first revenue-service westbound train on that Saturday–still one of the nerdier things I’ve done, which I realize is saying a lot–and then enjoying the view gliding above traffic felt like an epic win.
Knowing that I could take the train to the occasional work or social event in Tysons instead of taking my chances with traffic on I-66 and routes 7 or 123 represented an immediate upgrade to my NoVa logistics.
It took me a little longer to realize how having Metro get within seven miles of Dulles Airport would ease getting to and from IAD. And then I had to wait another eight years, vastly more than I would have imagined before the pandemic and even on our way out of it, to see the Silver Line reach Dulles itself.
I enjoyed that one-seat transit ride to Dulles yet again Thursday morning, which also gave me time to contemplate how that view from above Tysons has changed and how it hasn’t. While the McLean stop has undergone a remarkable level of urbanization that now features the tallest building in Northern Virginia, the Tysons station has seen less of a transformation–and the view to the south of Greensboro and Spring Hill has barely budged in that decade.
Meanwhile, walking outside the immediate vicinity of those stops can be as miserable as ever.
The scenery looked considerably better near the Wiehle-Reston East and Reston Town Center stations, where transit-oriented development has taken off without having so much of each neighborhood already chopped up by six- or eight-line roads.
My perspective on the Silver Line has also changed after seeing so many other transit megaprojects in the U.S. fly off their budgetary rails–for example, the Purple Line in Maryland, which has reached the tracks-on-the-ground stage of construction after billions of dollars in overruns and remains at least three years from opening. After all the angst over financing Metro’s farthest-reaching extension into the suburbs, we got this done at a per-mile cost cheaper than almost every other new transit project in the U.S. and even some overseas.
We should take a little pride in this public work… especially when talking to New Yorkers whose far more extensive subway system still doesn’t touch any of their airports.

Given the focus of this document I should probably be grateful that the strong and growing #parkingreform movement and its relevance to affordable housing is entirely ignored. Same deal with #transitorienteddevelopment

I’ve been to #Tokyo 🇯🇵 several times and can confirm that it is far too easy to get lost inside #Shinjuku Station. If you are able to visit Tokyo, I definitely recommend trying to navigate the station for the bizarre experience and also to say that you’ve been to the busiest railway station in the world with over 3 million passengers daily.

Nu är det en vecka sedan officiella första spadtaget för det andra kvarteret vid Årstaberg togs.
Var jag kan se så har skyltning med Wallenstams namn & logga kommit på plats, men inte mycket mer än så.Arbetet med nya GC-bron förbi stationstorget går framåt fint dock. Nu asfaltslager på bron.

Stamford is home to a number of aging and largely vacant office parks throughout the city. Converting these office parks to housing is an opportunity to tackle the issue of housing unaffordability, and earn more tax revenue. City officials acknowledge this, on paper. Yet time and time again, they reject such conversions on various grounds. This time, the conversion of the River Bend Center in Springdale could be rejected.

The #LightRailTransit 3 (#LRT3) line is expected to be up as early as March 2025, although it is not known which of the #stations will be completed by then
The project spans from #BandarUtama to #JohanSetia in #Klang, #Selangor
Transport Minister, Anthony Loke spoke about the importance of #transitoriented #development (#TOD) approach which liberalises #realestate & allows people to easily commute between multiple locations

The corporation has been actively issuing requests for proposals (#RFP) for #railway #land #development across multiple states
For example, in Johor, the #KempasCentral #transitoriented development (#TOD) is envisioned as the beating heart for commerce and communities in #JohorBahru's northern expanse

Highrise being built right by a LRT platform, in turn right next to a suburban rail platform. And the high rise will have an entrance to a brand new subway station too.
Sometimes, planning goes right here in Stockholm.(OK, technically in the suburb of Nacka, but still: awsome).

A lot of dense and tall redevelopment in the coming years. -

It's always the rule that when a governor or mayor announces improvements in transit oriented development of cities and communities, the #Republicans/#GOP opposes. They still believe in their myriads of single family homes with endless access roads, congested stroads and multi lane highways.
