Hello German and English speakers who may or may not care about climate and safe streets and transit. The Knoflacher wiki page in English is bad and the German page is great. Please help fix this.

Good timing for NACTO (an association of North American #cities and #transit agencies formed to exchange #transportation ideas, insights, and practices and cooperatively approach national transportation issues) to have its 2026 Designing Cities conference in #Minneapolis, May 12-15. https://events.bizzabo.com/designingcities2026?mc_cid=7556cbed44&mc_eid=9ab2822fa2

As Thomas L. Friedman suggested in March 15 column “Why Minnesota Matters More Than Iran for America’s Future”:
"For anyone outside of #Minnesota who wants to help, the best thing you can do is #vacation in the #TwinCities or hold your next #convention here.”

Cities winning the race to outer space 2025 REWRITE

Throughout history, ease of trade, commerce, and connectivity has played vital roles in determining which cities prosper and thrive. Seaports, canals, railroads, and highways have all determined urban winners and losers.   Today, the airport is the principle success determiner. Cities ranging from Dallas-Fort Worth, to Orlando, to Denver to Hong Kong, to Amsterdam, to Memphis, to Detroit, to Beijing, and to Anchorage have benefitted from establishing and maintaining cutting-edge aviation infrastructure.  This applies to passenger, overnight, air freight, or seaplane facilities.

This begs the question of what next? What mode of transportation will be the next conduit to increased trade, economic growth, and regional prosperity? In this planner’s opinion, those cities that become nodes of space travel and/or infrastructure will move ahead of the crowd by the middle of the 21st century. Because of previous investments, there are a number of cities that are well ahead of the pack. That fact, combined with limitations on the number of spaceports that the market can realistically support, will give the cities listed below a leg up on the competition and make them odd’s on favorites. Nevertheless, other cities around the globe may be able to ingenuously latch on to this futuristic growth engine.

Below is an updated list of those cities/metro regions in the United States (in alphabetical order) that are either already at the forefront of the urban space race or may become a potential contender, along with the reason(s) why. Not all have to be launch facilities, as research, control and tracking centers are also important. Those listed in bold are currently believed to be the leading metros in this space race. Other cities around the globe are listed separately.

Please feel free to suggest others that may have been missed in this update. Those sites (existing and proposed) which are in very remote locations were not included on the list. Weblinks to sources are provided at the end of the post.

Peace!

Cities winning the race to outer space: 2025 REWRITE

Throughout history, ease of trade, commerce, and connectivity has played vital roles in determining which cities prosper and thrive. Seaports, canals, railroads, and highways have all determined urban winners and losers.   Today, the airport is the principle success determiner. Cities ranging from Dallas-Fort Worth, to Orlando, to Denver to Hong Kong, to Amsterdam, to Memphis, to Detroit, to Beijing, and to Anchorage have benefitted from establishing and maintaining cutting-edge aviation infrastructure.  This applies to passenger, overnight, air freight, or seaplane facilities.

This begs the question of what next? What mode of transportation will be the next conduit to increased trade, economic growth, and regional prosperity? In this planner’s opinion, those cities that become nodes of space travel and/or infrastructure will move ahead of the crowd by the middle of the 21st century. Because of previous investments, there are a number of cities that are well ahead of the pack. That fact, combined with limitations on the number of spaceports that the market can realistically support, will give the cities listed below a leg up on the competition and make them odd’s on favorites. Nevertheless, other cities around the globe may be able to ingenuously latch on to this futuristic growth engine.

Below is an updated list of those cities/metro regions in the United States (in alphabetical order) that are either already at the forefront of the urban space race or may become a potential contender, along with the reason(s) why. Not all have to be launch facilities, as research, control and tracking centers are also important. Those listed in bold are currently believed to be the leading metros in this space race. Other cities around the globe are listed separately.

Please feel free to suggest others that may have been missed in this update. Those sites (existing and proposed) which are in very remote locations were not included on the list. Weblinks to sources are provided at the end of the post.

Peace!
