The planner's dream gone wrong: Garden Crazed. The planner's dream gone wrong. My ramblings on cities, planning, transit, maps, politics, chicago, records, soccer, and anything else i damn well please. It's spring in Chicago, and the lilacs are blooming (although it feels more like November at the moment). In the spirit of the thing, I present the latest installment of my occasional "everything old is new again" series. And Hermosa is just slightly west of where I live. In general blog news, I recent.

https://transportplanning.wordpress.com/author/jamesgleave2
Notes from a Transport Planner. Thoughts on transport, planning, government, society, and everything too long to post on Twitter. Does a Smart City really need technology?

Pedestrianist: Powell Street Sidewalk Widening
http://pedestrianist.blogspot.com/2010/12/powell-street-sidewalk-widening.html
Friday, December 17, 2010. Powell Street Sidewalk Widening. This Looks. AWESOME. Powell street is so thick with pedestrians, this space is badly needed. Hopefully, bringing the level of the new space up to sidewalk height will lead to it being more well-used than the brief trial. The city ran a year ago. That the project will be finished and open in April. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. People Sitting on Things that Aren't Chairs #3. Market Street Railway Blog.
