Happy Friday! We hope to see you tonight at 5:30pm at DSI Comedy for our Candidate Coming Out Party. Before you join us then, here are some things we found interesting on the web this week:
- Let's put those tired, anti-bike arguments to rest: This is a wonderful piece from Streets.mn about the same old, tired arguments against cycling that we'd like to see vanish from public discourse
- If you want a place to welcome kids, make it urban: Vibrant urban places offer families more options, more flexibility, and give children more safety and independence
- Tiny house movement pushes the boundaries of traditional zoning: Tiny houses are in vogue right now, but they're running up against zoning rules all across the country
- Why aren't we talking about Marietta, Georgia?: This article from City Observatory describes gentrification happening in Marietta - and how much worse it is than what the media obsesses over in our nation's urban areas
- What can conservatives do for cities?: Another great piece from City Observatory that shows liberals prefer urban living while conservatives want suburban neighborhoods and critiques whether conservative ideas can do anything for cities
- Study: public transit provides significant and diverse benefits: A new study shows that the benefits of public transit are plentiful and diverse
