SW Ontario Urbanist: Mapping population change in Detroit by decade
http://swontariourbanist.blogspot.com/2015/08/mapping-population-change-in-detroit-by.html
Monday, 10 August 2015. Mapping population change in Detroit by decade. While I'm working on the next big post on 2000-2010 population change of urban cores, here's a post on population change in Detroit. Although Detroit has been experiencing population loss since 1950, it hasn't been occurring at the same rate each decade, and some neighbourhoods have lost more population since 1950 than others. The legend is the same as from the New York Times. The core was predominantly losing population while outlyi...

Apex Urbanism: November 2014
http://apexurbanism.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2014. A short opinion piece from Scotland that you should read. Car-free city centres a must. REPORTS in The Herald as I write (November 20) tragically illustrate points I made (Letters, November 15), that our addiction to oil and cars constitutes the overwhelming problem facing western society, a problem disproportionally concentrated in Glasgow.".

Apex Urbanism: Lockerbie Square, Indianapolis
http://apexurbanism.blogspot.com/2015/02/lockerbie-square-indianapolis.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. Lockerbie Square, Indianapolis. A pretty good example (at least for the States) of a pleasant single-family residential neighborhood with narrow-ish streets. Cut down the width by about 5-10 or so and it'd look like a Japanese neighborhood. The trees completely covering the streets are nice too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://apexurbanism.blogspot.com/2013/09/2-american-alleyways-repurposed-as.html
Wednesday, September 11, 2013. 2 American Alleyways Repurposed as Narrow Streets. Tight streets (or " Really Narrow Streets. As Nathan Lewis calls them) are KEY. In any successful urban area from the smallest village to a Tokyo-size megalopolis. I would say they are the most important part of what makes a great city (a city for people. Similar to a Really Narrow Street. Here are two of those examples. 1 Will Dodge Way, Ashland, Oregon. 2 Pedestrian Alley, Holland, Michigan (photo by me). Walking boston /...

SW Ontario Urbanist: US MSAs urban vs suburban growth (2000-2010) - Part 4
http://swontariourbanist.blogspot.com/2015/07/us-msas-urban-vs-suburban-growth-2000_27.html
Monday, 27 July 2015. US MSAs urban vs suburban growth (2000-2010) - Part 4. In part 3 of this series. I looked at how much the urban cores of the biggest American metro areas grew between 2000 and 2010, with urban cores that were defined primarily by 1960 population densities. Partly to show how well this methodology matches up to what people would subjectively consider the urban cores, I posted images of what the boundaries were for the urban cores of the 10 biggest MSAs. Urban core net growth (ranking).
