If you know someone who isn't convinced that upzoning matters, send them this great explainer video from @Sightline—and if you *really* want to blow their mind, send them a Strong Towns article about why *incremental* development is even more important. bit.ly/2KnUg1S

"Architecture is art. I don't think you should say that too much, but it is art. I mean, architecture is many, many things. Architecture is science, is technology, is geography, is typography, is anthropology, is sociology, is art, is history." — Renzo Piano #WisdomWednesday

Misconception of the day: #formbasedcodes dictate architecture. TRUTH: FBCs are firm and predictable about basic urban form, but flexible about use, density, detail & design. It's entirely up to the community to determine how restrictive the code is. bit.ly/2DdjA6g

Our current land use patterns are sprawling/car-dependent & contribute to the biggest culprit of #climatechange (driving) ⏩ "Walkable, transit-friendly neighborhoods are more cost- and carbon-efficient, and there’s substantial unmet demand for them." bit.ly/2RQwGLc
Why Housing Policy Is Climate Policy: “In California, where home prices are pushing people farther from their jobs, rising traffic is creating more pollution.” Via @Scott_Wiener @nytimes Remember, the best transportation plan is a great land-use plan. nytimes.com/2019/03/25/opini…

A new report, described by @planetizen's @CasualBrasuell, finds there's a large market for smaller homes—but builders keep building huge ones! #OrderlyButDumb rules like parking minimums and rigid single-family zoning are surely part of the problem here. bit.ly/2ubeW3Q

A report from the @NLIHC shows that "no state or city in the entire country has an adequate supply of housing for extremely low-income housing population." So we ask, what is your community doing to address the #HousingCrisis bit.ly/2TiGAGo
