Build cities for people, not cars! 🤯 Raleigh already eliminated parking minimums city-wide, but it can go further by legalizing more housing choices and investing more in public transit. See the data for yourself: loom.ly/KuD412o #data #raleigh #yimby #durham

As #Durham considers removing its urban freeway, let us: 1) never forget what we lost to "urban renewal", and 2) develop a better future for all This photo shows #Kansas City's North Loop freeway and the neighborhoods that it displaced. Should Durham, NC get rid of the Durham Freeway?

Hope we can turn back time with this one! The Hotel Carrolina (named by Julian Carr) was Durham's first luxury hotel, built in 1891 in the Queen Anne Victorian style 👑 One fire and a century later... a city parking lot sits where the Carrolina once stood. #durham #history #historyfact

Durham or Europe? With residential, office, and commercial space mixed around a plaza, Sutton Station is a unique development, parts of which feel vaguely European. American Tobacco Trail and bus access make for a surprising oasis off of Fayetteville St. #durham #walkable #plazas
