  2. 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.

  3. 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 🙏🙇‍♂️🙂

  4. "How many more people have to die?" MoDOT proposed safety improvements to reduce fatal crashes on Rte 231, but some residents still support roads designed for dangerously fast speeds.

  6. I’d never spent so much of my spare time on exploring a social media platform until Mastodon. It’s absolutely worthwhile to take some time to get into this real community-like platform and connect to different communities.
    P.S. Is there a circle of academics who self-define as #urbanists? We really need a group like this #cities #urbanism #digitalisation #smartcities #urbaninnovation #urbanfutures #urbanstudies #urbangeography #digitalsociety #citizens #citizenscience

  7. A growing community of Ukrainians in the Netherlands and Dutch design an planning professionals, have started the UNUN initiative to start thinking about the reconstruction of the country.

    The aim is to stimulate knowledge exchange and capacity building. The platform also aims to connect Ukrainian #architects, #landscapearchitects and #urbanists looking for work with Dutch design firms who are willing to employ people from #Ukraine.
