online urbanists when its time to negatively polarize people outside their yuppie bubbles with thinly veiled racism

hey if you're in chicago and want a cool treat please consider looking somewhere besides miko's italian ice. it's ridiculous and shameful to fire someone for taking a basic safety measure that doesn't interfere with anythiny
to my followers in chicago: avoid Miko's Italian Ice
my gf wears a mask in public because she lives with someone
who is immunocompromised and wants to keep them safe
after making it through their (really competitive) process, she got the job
come day 1, she was told "you can either take off the mask or not
work here"
it's messed up for a business to show this much disregard for their employees. spread the word

BOO!! photo thread! milwaukee's Hop streetcar is actually pretty cool. a couple saturdays ago, @renzaro.com and i visited the city - a first for both of us. frequencies weren't the greatest, but the vehicles were pretty nice & we moved quickly thanks to skilled operators. decently busy too!

It is incredibly annoying that Divvy forces you to buy an annual membership. If they offered a monthly payment option I would definitely try it...

What if Baltimore had a legacy rapid transit system? This is part 2 of my series exploring an alternate universe where that happens. In this map, we jump ahead to 1939, where the Great Depression and formation of the BTCO have shaken things up... Check it out :)

What if Baltimore began building its rapid transit network near the turn of the 20th century like New York, Boston, or Chicago did? In this map, I imagined the state of Baltimore's fictional rapid transit network as of 1914, and how it got there...

one of my favorite shots: here’s an acela stopped at stamford, featuring the funny flip-out mirror 📸
acela powercar 2011 leads a dc-bound train as it makes a stamford station stop. it’s dark out, but the sky is more of a dark blue than black, as it hasn’t gotten too late yet. a wide angle reveals the detail of the station and the salt on the platform in the cold december air, and the acela’s headlights flare and reflect off the platform edge.

metrobus outside gallery place station, sometime early this march 📸
here is a WMATA XD40 hauling up seventh street in the rain, it’s dark out and rainy so there’s a bunch of cool reflections and stuff everywhere coming off the streetlights and signs on the buildings.
