The first upzoning Zohran should push for is the Upper East & Upper West Side, two of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the city with the least housing production.

things have gotten so bad on the UES that apartment buildings are being torn down and replaced by *smaller* buildings with fewer units

Sources: New York City Department of City Planning, Housing Database, Unit Change Summary Files: OSC analysis yimbygram NEW YORK - New renderings have been revealed for 800 Fifth Avenue, a proposed 26-story residential building on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects and developed by Naftali Group, the structure will stand 330 feet tall and yield an undisclosed number of condominium units. The project will require the partial demolition of the current occupant, a 33-story rental building constructed in 1979. The property is located within the Upper East Side Historic District at the corner of Fifth Avenue and East 61st Street, directly across from Central Park. The main rendering above shows the western profile bearing RAMSA's signature prewar-inspired design elements, including a warm limestone façade and multifaceted upper massing. The structure begins with a five-story podium, followed by the main tower rising to a series of setbacks topped with terraces. The symmetrical fenestration incorporates large arched windows on the upper corners and at the center of the building below its ornamental crown. Other renderings preview how the new design will blend more appropriately with the surrounding architectural context. More visible are the details in the limestone façade, including decorative window frames and lintels and the use of dentil trim cornices. A terrace with glass railings is shown atop the sixth story corner cutout, and new raised garden beds will line the sidewalks along Fifth

Londýn nemá sdílené koloběžky, ale má tunu sdílených kol. Konec koloběžek v Praze mě osobně trochu mrzí (začal jsem je v poslední době využívat víc než kola), ale také je příležitostí našlápnout rozvoj druhé formy efektivní a čisté dopravy.

London is becoming a cycling city.

As we continue to expand London’s cycle network, the number of daily bike trips is soaring. Cycling has risen by more than 40% since 2019 to 1,500,000 trips every day.

Konečně jsem si našel čas k dočtení skvělé knihy Města Bez Plánu od Alaina Bertauda.

Měli byste nějaké doporučení na podobné knihy na téma urbanismus / Městský rozvoj / cyklodoprava, které se neorientují pouze na odbornou veřejnost ale jsou psané i pro tu širší?

"Fialovou sekyrou" Starmera je Brexit. Odmítl jej zvrátit, přitom bez členství v EU Británie nemůže prosperovat.

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.

Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

Republicans increasingly oppose requiring healthy kids to get MMR vaccines to attend public schools
2016 19%
2019 20%
2023 42%
2025 47%
www.pewresearch.org/science/2025... 🧪
Chart showing that since 2016, a vast majority of U.S. adults have said healthy children should be required to get the vaccine to attend public school because of the potential risks for others when children are not vaccinated. But support for school MMR requirements dropped from 82% in 2019 to 69% in 2025. This decline is largely because of a steep slide in support among Republicans. In 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic, 79% of Republicans said healthy children should be required to get the MMR vaccine to attend school. This share sunk to 57% in 2023, then to 52% in 2025. In contrast, Democrats’ views on school MMR requirements have remained stable, with solid majority support.

Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*

The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

Bye bye, “DOGE”.

Experiment dát dceru do francouzské škol(k)y (což je její tříapultý jazyk, který ani jeden z rodičů v podstatě vůbec neumíme) je fascinující pozorovat. Po 3 měsících skvěle vyslovuje, umí tak 100-200 slov, zpívá si... ale nesloží žádnou větu, samozřejmě nic nepřečte a nepřeloží.

Conclusion: E-bikes make bikeshare better.
