@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."

The Parra metro station construction site has been a bit of a dead zone for a while. Finally filling it will make a massive difference to its CBD.
While there's a case for more offices, if you're going to go with apartments, you may as well go big:
"Four towers of up to 43 storeys will be built above or next to the new Parramatta railway station following the planned opening of the 24-kilometre Metro West line between Sydney CBD and Westmead in 2032.
"The over-station development just north of Parramatta Square will feature 470 apartments – up from 111 outlined in concept plans – and 500 units for student accommodation. It will feature pedestrian laneways and a landscaped park that will form part of a civic link connecting the station to the new Powerhouse Museum and Parramatta River foreshore.
"A 43-storey tower comprising the 470 build-to-rent apartments will be five storeys higher than originally outlined in the concept plans. Subject to planning approval, a 29-storey office building, a 24-level tower for student accommodation and an eight-storey hotel will also be built on the site."

The latest short doco from #FrankFilms is an insightful, and depressing, look at why the rebuild of Christchurch city, NZ, after the earthquakes didn’t lead to the planned resurgence of inner city residents and communities. Spoiler: all the new inner city dwellings were built at the arrival of AirBnB into the city, and developers and landlords instead have been making lots of money renting out the properties to short-stay visitors. At the same time, there has been inaction by NZ’s national government to give our cities legislative powers to regulate the hotel-like businesses that are diluting real neighbourhoods.
There’s definitely a lot to think about here.

Research - #RainBarrels and Other Household Stormwater Strategies Are Working — For Now.
May 5, 2026
Excerpt: " 'When we talk about #CircularEconomy, most people think about #recycling waste and materials. But the concept of circular economy also applies to water. Here we're talking about installing #rainwater #cisterns, reusing water from the sink to flush toilets and using water-efficient appliances. While those may seem like small steps at the individual level, we found that if they are widely adopted, they can have a significant collective impact,' said Fernanda Cruz Rios, PhD, an assistant professor in the College of Engineering, who was a co-author of the research. 'They help reduce demand on the municipal supply, and the energy needed to treat and distribute that water. But what we found was that these strategies offer a real double benefit. In areas like #PhiladelphiaPA and #CamdenME, that are particularly vulnerable due to their proximity to large bodies of water, we were able to see a meaningful reduction in flooding volumes when circular water strategies were adopted.'
"Despite the ongoing compliance efforts, the cities of Philadelphia and Camden have around 16 billion gallons of combined #sewer overflow, according to reports from their respective water utilities.
"Over the last two and a half decades, Camden has established a stormwater management plan, including decentralized strategies, an upgrade to #stormwater infrastructure and storm water management modeling. To understand the overall impact of these efforts, in hopes of applying findings to other vulnerable urban areas, the Drexel team created a computer model of stormwater movement using data from Cramer Hill, a neighborhood of Camden in the state’s 'coastal hazard zone' that is highly susceptible to tidal and storm-surge flooding.
"The researchers structured the model so that it could quantify the distinct effects of outdoor strategies (cisterns and rain barrels) and indoor strategies — efficient fixtures and reusing sink wash water (#greywater) for toilet flushing. It simulated and measured the effect of 16 different combinations of strategies, ranging from rain barrels of different sizes, to varying levels of adoption of water-efficient fixtures and greywater reuse."Each scenario was simulated using precipitation and tidal data from 2014 as a baseline and flooding measurements projected at locations across the neighborhood and at five stormwater outfall areas that contribute to combined sewer overflow discharges into the #DelawareRiver.
The results show that the combination of retrofitting homes with #WaterEfficientFixtures as well as installing rain barrels and practicing greywater reuse, when adopted by 75% of households, could reduce the volume of combined sewer overflows by as much as 11% and the volume of #floodwaters by up to 13%.
" 'This finding is an important and encouraging piece of information for municipalities that are facing similar challenges,' Marques said. 'Although broad adoption of these measures can be challenging to achieve, confirmation of its effectiveness may help to make the case.' "

Equitable urban green space planning for sustainable cities: a GIS-based analysis of spatial disparities and functional strategies
Published: 02 July 2025
Sayyed Kifayatullah, Zafeer Saqib, Muhammad Irfan Khan, Muhammad Zaman-ul-Haq, Dmitry E. Kucher, Sajid Ullah & Aqil Tariq"Abstract:
#UrbanGreenSpaces (#UGS) are critical for fostering ecological sustainability and social equity in rapidly urbanizing cities like #Islamabad, #Pakistan. This study aimed to comprehensively map and classify Islamabad’s UGS, identify spatial disparities, and evaluate their ecological, recreational, and social functions. The research also proposed sustainable strategies for managing UGS to address urban challenges, including climate adaptation, biodiversity loss, and social inequity. The study developed a detailed spatial map of Islamabad’s UGS using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and high-resolution satellite imagery. Seven typologies were categorized and analyzed, including parks, playgrounds, institutional green spaces, and waterways. Field surveys and random sampling validated the thematic maps, achieving an accuracy rate of 95.68% based on statistical metrics like Kappa coefficients. The study revealed significant disparities in UGS distribution.
"Wealthier zones had larger, well-maintained green spaces, while denser areas lacked accessible and functional UGS. Recreational spaces, institutional greenery, and waterways played a vital role in enhancing biodiversity, urban aesthetics, and community well-being, though many remain underutilized or degraded. Institutional green spaces contributed significantly to urban sustainability, comprising 17.05 km² of the total UGS area. The research highlights UGS as an essential #NatureBasedSolution (#NBS) for addressing urban challenges like #HeatIslands, #stormwater management, and #SocialInequalities. The findings serve as a model for other rapidly urbanizing cities seeking #ecological and social balance.
[...]
"Conclusion
[T]his study underscores the pivotal role of UGS in fostering ecological #sustainability, social equity, and urban resilience, particularly in rapidly urbanizing cities like Islamabad. By leveraging GIS and high-resolution satellite imagery, the research provides a detailed analysis of the spatial distribution, typologies, and functional value of #GreenSpaces across the city. The findings reveal striking disparities, where wealthier neighborhoods enjoy better-maintained parks and green belts, while densely populated and economically underprivileged areas often lack accessible and functional green spaces. This imbalance highlights the urgent need for equitable planning and management of urban greenery.
"The research affirms that UGS are more than aesthetic elements; they serve as vital ecological assets by regulating #UrbanMicroclimates, enhancing #biodiversity, managing stormwater, and mitigating the urban heat island effect. Socially, they contribute to community well-being by offering recreation, relaxation, and physical activity spaces. However, the study also identifies significant challenges, such as the uneven distribution, poor maintenance, and underutilization of certain green spaces, which limit their potential to deliver these benefits.
"To address these challenges, the study emphasizes the importance of integrating UGS into #UrbanPlanning policies to ensure #EquitableAccess for all city residents, regardless of socioeconomic status. It also highlights the value of #CommunityInvolvement in the upkeep and management of green spaces, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility among local stakeholders. Sustainable funding mechanisms, such as public-private partnerships, are proposed to ensure UGS’s regular maintenance and future expansion. Moreover, the research advocates for continued use of data-driven decision-making, leveraging GIS tools to monitor and optimize green infrastructure for long-term sustainability. While this study focuses on Zone I, expanding future research to other zones would offer a more comprehensive perspective on UGS distribution and accessibility across the entire city.
"This research presents UGS as Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) to tackle pressing urban challenges like #ClimateChange, flooding, and social inequalities, offering actionable strategies for policymakers and urban planners. While centered on Islamabad, these findings provide a valuable framework that other rapidly urbanizing cities can adapt to strike a balance between development and ecological integrity. The study reminds that sustainable cities must prioritize green spaces to ensure a livable, #equitable, and #resilient urban future."

Raleigh’s Next Wave of Development: What RTP 3.0, Downtown South, and the Depot Historic District Could Mean for Affordability in the Triangle
Raleigh is entering another major chapter of growth. Several high-profile development projects are moving forward that could reshape how people live, work, and spend time throughout the Triangle.
Supporters see these projects as investments that will bring new jobs, housing, entertainment, and public spaces. Critics, however, worry that continued redevelopment and rising property values could accelerate gentrification and make Raleigh even less affordable for longtime residents.
Here’s a look at three major projects that could influence the future of Raleigh.
RTP 3.0: Reimagining Research Triangle Park
Research Triangle Park is preparing for its next evolution through a long-term planning initiative known as RTP 3.0.
The initiative is designed to transform the traditional office park into a more connected community by exploring:
- Additional housing options
- Walkable neighborhoods
- Mixed-use development
- Public gathering spaces
- Improved transportation connections
While detailed development plans have not yet been released, RTP leaders say the goal is to create an environment where people can live, work, and socialize without relying entirely on cars.
Residents interested in learning more can attend the RTP 3.0 Lunch & Learn: Reimagine the Park on August 13.
Potential Impact
If successful, RTP 3.0 could diversify housing choices near one of the nation’s largest employment centers. However, increased demand around RTP may also place additional pressure on housing prices throughout Wake and Durham counties if affordability is not prioritized.
Depot Historic District: Blending History with Modern Development
Downtown Raleigh’s historic Depot area is also preparing for significant investment.
Plans include:
- A 170-room boutique hotel
- More than 30,000 square feet of street-level retail
- Outdoor gathering areas
- Public plazas
- Pedestrian-friendly connections between the Raleigh Convention Center and Red Hat Amphitheater
- Preservation of the historic 1912 Depot building
Developers say the project will strengthen downtown tourism while preserving an important piece of Raleigh’s history.
Potential Impact
The Depot Historic District could become another destination for visitors and residents alike, increasing foot traffic and economic activity. At the same time, nearby property values and commercial rents could continue to rise, raising concerns for existing small businesses and neighboring communities.
Downtown South Returns
After years of delays, Downtown South is once again moving forward.
The proposed mixed-use development near Dorothea Dix Park would include:
- New residential housing
- Office space
- Retail and restaurants
- Entertainment venues
- Public gathering spaces
- A new soccer stadium associated with the ownership group of the NC Courage
If construction begins, the project would dramatically reshape southern downtown Raleigh and create an entirely new urban district.
Potential Impact
Downtown South has the potential to generate significant economic activity and attract new businesses. However, nearby neighborhoods could also experience increasing housing costs and redevelopment pressures as investment expands beyond downtown.
What Does This Mean for Housing Affordability?
Large mixed-use developments often bring new housing, jobs, and amenities that strengthen a city’s economy. However, without a substantial supply of housing at a range of price points, increased demand can contribute to higher home prices and rents.
Some residents have expressed concern that continued redevelopment in Raleigh is accelerating gentrification and making it more difficult for longtime residents to remain in their neighborhoods. Others argue that adding more housing through projects like these can help accommodate growth over time.
The ultimate impact on affordability will depend on several factors, including:
- The amount and type of housing ultimately built
- Whether affordable housing is included
- Local zoning and land-use policies
- Regional population growth
- Infrastructure and transit investments
As these projects continue to evolve, they are likely to remain central topics in conversations about Raleigh’s future.
The Bottom Line
Raleigh continues to attract new residents, employers, and investment at a rapid pace. Projects like RTP 3.0, the Depot Historic District, and Downtown South represent significant opportunities for economic growth and urban transformation.
At the same time, they raise important questions about affordability, neighborhood preservation, and how the city balances growth with the needs of current residents.
As plans become more detailed, DoRaleigh.com will continue following these developments and what they could mean for the future of the Triangle.

"Unknowingly or not, Sesame Street’s creators aligned themselves with the ideas of Jane Jacobs, whose 1961 book The Death and Life of Great American Cities had become the bible for urbanists. Jacobs championed mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods over the bulldozing approach of planners like Robert Moses. She identified four conditions essential to vibrant city blocks—and Sesame Street embodies them all."

Induced demand isnt only a thing in public transport and city planning, i think.
it seems to apply to other human societies and communities too.
before creating a channel for selfies on my friendgroup discord (i know, but you try moving them over smh), nobody posted selfies. Before creating a channel for MMORPGs, nobody posted about their MMO game progress.
You build it, they will come

Sometimes I come up with strange video game projects. I've loved city simulation games since I first played the original Sim City game in school in the 80s. I've enjoyed several Sim City games since (2000, DS, the mobile one), but I've always just gone headlong into the game and built anything however, without a real plan, like the big dumb Aries I am.
I recently grabbed Skylines on Switch when it was super discounted, and it's such a cool looking, realistic game, that this time, I want to do it LEGIT. I decided I wanted to research real cities (and I've started to) for different things like sustainability, walkability, etc, in order to plan out a really cool, realistic type city in the game.
