Congrats to Seattle 🙌

First trip across the lake. A little nervous as we hit the floating bridge. A little jolt but smooth.

This is more than I pay for a MONTH of all local and regional train access across ALL of Germany🤦
Sure, charging a little more for a special event makes sense, but this certainly is not going to encourage people to take transit to the games...

Exclusive @TheAthleticFC
Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) plans to almost quadruple usual prices for return train ticket from center of Boston to Gillette Stadium during World Cup.
Up from $20 for NFL games to above $75.

We'll be keeping an eye on this! Curious to see what you learn.
Gondolas don't make sense everywhere, but they certainly could be useful in more places than we find them today.
Happy to announce that I’m one of the recipient of the 2026 @CRSH_SSHRC grant for my MSc at @ENAP_Universite!
I will be researching the potential role of urban gondolas as a positive disruptor of transit economics in N-A suburban areas, including on flat unobstructed terrain 🚠

Did a deep dive into dueling proposals for a Tram Network and a Mag Lev train in western Berlin....
Yeah, it's a pretty weird story! Go check it out. I spent a lot of time on this one...

👀 Love to see candidates talking about high speed rail 🙌
We built an interstate highway system across the entire country seventy years ago.
There is no reason (aside from the interests of fossil fuel companies) why we can't have high-speed rail.

Looks like good news in Dallas! We spoke with members from @ridewithdata about this a few months back (Interview in replies)
Feb 24
The Plano City Council has chosen to cancel its DART withdrawal election and accept a deal with the transit agency.
More cities are set to make the same decision later this week.

Reach out! Berlin area folks.

Any ideas for someone to speak to who is knowledgeable about the plans for new trams in Western Berlin (Spandau), as well as the CDU Mag Lev proposal (lol)?
Considering doing a @TransitTangent episode on it.

Putting the Y’all in Y’all Aboard. Thanks to Brad Stuver, Gabby Thomas, Ben Kweller, and all the Austinites who asked us some great questions about Austin’s light rail.

Last year I decided I was no longer satisfied just posting about housing.
So I started a company with 3 other incredible dudes with the mission to build missing-middle housing at scale.
Introducing... The American Housing Corporation
It’s time to rebuild the American Dream.
For a half-century, America has critically under-built family-sized housing in our most dynamic cities and neighborhoods, rendering them childless and unaffordable.
It's time to save the American Dream.

105 gondolas will carry more than 11,000 passengers a day.
35 minutes on the ground vs. 18 minutes in the air.

Going to go check it out with @TransitTangent in like 2 weeks! Very excited to see how it works!
We'll be doing a video on it 👍
I've ridden the gondolas in Medellin and they are connected so nicely to their metro system.
