Hey American #urbanists - what do you think of #Indianapolis? I’m finishing up a video and I want to hear about what people’s “starting place” is when they think about the city.

The former head of communications of the now-shuttered U.S. foreign aid program offers at lesson for #urbanists. USAID did a terrible job , he says, of telling people at home what it was doing abroad … and how it benefited them. Urbanists have ideas that aren’t in most people’s experience. Explain how these changes can help everyone … or you are one demagogue away from being shut down. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/29/opinion/usaid-ending.html

With urbanists.social shutting down soon where are people going to? (This would be the second urbanist instance to shut down). #Mastodon #urbanists #urbanism

It was so cool to meet up with a group of #urbanists in #Minneapolis this morning. Thanks for all the insights on transit in the Twin Cities. And thanks @ianrbuck for organizing!

(1/?) I watch a number of "urbanist" channels on YouTube because I find the subjects of better cities, energy efficiency, and better transit to be interesting and important to our collective future. But while I find a lot to agree with, sometimes I find the presenters and their ideas -- challenging. And today I watched a video by Ray Delahanty, who I've been watching for a long time, and it cheesed me off quite a bit.... (thread)

My friend Rosa Yolanda Pineda has organized an event to get more folks CYCLING in Uptown Manhattan on an Open Street.
If you have never ridden a #bike before— and #nyc is an admittedly challenging place to learn- come uptown and have fun with friends in a car-free #NYCbike #bikeNYC zone. Its an #urbanists delight.

NYC did its first in a series of reimagine the Cross Bronx talks last night.
My impression- under impressed.

I’ve *finally* gotten around to reading The Death and Life of Great American Cities, by Jane Jacobs. And what has surprised me is how often she refers to “users”. I guess I somehow thought that was a more recent term of art associated with UX.

Is it fair to say that most online urbanists are the linux bros of cities and about as annoying?

“All politics in S.F. is land use”: If you try to use conventional political categories to understand S.F. politics, you’ll notice something strange. The most progressive and most conservative candidates for mayor sound like NIMBYs who want to stop housing and allow cars everywhere. It’s the candidates in the middle, including Mayor Breed, who are the #urbanists. https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/article/sf-mayor-peskin-farrell-19514903.php

I'm not dead!
Successful first bike rack and roll to my new work today. (Even if my bike fell out of the rack halfway through 😬). And also a fun bike/scooter picnic at the park with @RhiVuorille
My "don't kill me" pin on turned some heads but if it works who cares 😅

@nicemicro
As a bicycle commuter, I see more than the car-dependent making critiques of the spandex warriors on these themes:
1) macho (even though women also ride in spandex)
2) did nothing to advocate for better infrastructure
3) emulate behaviour of boy racers, but on two wheels
5) perpetuate the idea of cycling as recreation/fitness, not transportation.
6) rich / privileged / ostentatiousNot to say road bike riders aren't also #urbanists, but that hasn't been seen as their priority.

@notjustbikes
If anyone knows any Asian #Urbanists on YouTube, I'd love to watch more. Stuff like this.

Maps have been placed at some bus stops by a helpful commuter! Check this one out on the #8 on Cherokee.
These maps help to clarify the bus system for new travelers.

Hey #Urbanists of Mastodon.
If anyone knows of any really good studies/papers that show how pedestrianisation has been a big benefit for local businesses, please can you share them.
EDIT: Thanks, everyone who sent me stuff. I think I have enough now 🙏🙇♂️🙂
