And it enjoys the added benefit of being “traditional” - harking back to a past that’s only limited by how much you understand (or don’t) about communities. Until I hear more, this is the one like. END 8/8

My latest at CSY. What if I told you that a surveying system first devised 240 years ago figured prominently in the urban decline that hit Rust Belt cities 170 years later? Find the link in the thread.

My latest at CSY. Another effort to explore the causes behind the American housing affordability crisis. It's deeper than most everyone thinks. See the link in the comments.
