RIP Margaret Swan. Just a horrific act of violence that occurred in our city. On top of being a beloved mother/grandmother and by all accounts wonderful person, she was evidently an everyday MARTA rider. www.11alive.com/article/news...

Beautiful image of a slip lane becoming a new sidewalk in NW Atlanta! I love seeing slip lanes go away; these are awful spots for pedestrians. Creating nicer places for walking involves hundreds of little changes like this. 🙌 Image source: Hasbun Construction www.linkedin.com/posts/hasbun...

In the past year, metro Atlanta saw more evictions than all of New York City—despite having *one-quarter* the renters. Multiple Atlanta apartment complexes averaged an eviction a day. "The numbers are mind-blowing," said Grace Hartley of Princeton's Eviction Lab.

It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that when Atlantans talk about places being "accessible," they usually mean "there's a bunch of free parking near the door." I had optimistically assumed they mean there were great sidewalks, crosswalks, buses, and ADA ramps.

I got to use the streetcar today! After I had a great lunch from Afro Dish at the Municipal Market and bought some groceries at one of the produce stands at the Market, I took the streetcar a couple of stops so I could be a little closer for my walk back home. $1 (paid on the Breeze app). Worth it.
