🌳 Remarkable example of New Urbanism landscape architecture from Fayetteville, AR.

🌟 It's a 36 mile (~60km) multilevel greenway that connects multiple urban spaces and attractions.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 The recently completed project "offers opportunities for visual and performing art throughout and serves as a hub for activity, gathering, recreation, and community."

🌞 Looks much better than concrete sidewalks through sterile grass fields.

I think New Urbanism is mutating into New Suburbanism. Aka strip malls with integrated apartment buildings. Little mixed use complexes out in the middle of empty space. A gorgeous view from your condo balcony of a walmart. It’s so weird.

The Blueprint: How to Get There - The Complete Community, Part 4 - The New Orleans

This series has been a journey. We started by defining the “Complete Community” as the essential destination that makes a “Complete Street” useful (Part 1). We then explored its key ingredients: a mix of local amenities and human-scale communities (Part 2). Finally, we detailed the massive payoffs: stronger social bonds, significant family savings, and a […]

Among existing tech that could be used for a hyperlocal social service, maybe something like Hometown?

Or maybe Bonfire Community, or a @bonfire flavour specifically for the purpose?

Bus is a public transit board game that comes in a two-inch tall box. It imagines a flexible route rather than a fixed route system. https://brucefnesmith.blogspot.com/2025/04/game-review-bus.html

City for All on youtube has made an interesting video with suggestions about how to improve a US city with urbanism. Specifically Boise, Idaho.

What do my dear followers here on Mastodon think? Interesting content?
I'd say it's very constructive and well explained.
