@rnzbot_nz It’s good to see an admission here of why Auckland City is such a sprawling car-dependent mess now.
> A striking theme in the article was how successive governments opted to invest in Auckland's motorway infrastructure rather than commuter rail. "That went back to the 1950s and 1960s, there was a considerable push for motorway development [which was] a world-wide trend for most major cities.
> "Auckland looked to Los Angeles for a lead -- Los Angeles was investing very heavily in motorways -- and the Auckland commuter system was deliberately run down from the 1950s through to the 1990s."

Why sell public land cheap? Questions about parking for high-density projects. This allows coffee shops & restaurants to use sidewalk space and parklets for tables. More opportunities for businesses to thrive! #DowntownRevitalization #SmallBusiness #LocalEconomy #UrbanPlanning #Community

The Dutch approach to floating architecture is often praised as a futuristic miracle, but for me it is just honest planning. They stopped fighting the water and started integrating it into the urban fabric. We could learn a lot from this logic when thinking about our own coastal cities. It is less about the tech and more about accepting the context of the land.

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.”
