I understand that many, many people are having fun, being kind, and are generally enjoying the party atmosphere. That does not discount the fact that people are being intimidated, put out of work, and assaulted every day since this has begu

I'm happy that you haven't experienced any of that. None of what I said is untrue. I'm glad there has been lots of support from this protest to attempt to make up for some of the damage. It is still an illegal occupation that

Personal anecdotal evidence does not disprove that very real violence has occurred and continues to occur in my city.

I live in Ottawa and I assure you that this protest is not peaceful. I've had friends physically assaulted, spit on, and yelled at just for wearing a mask into a business. Not to mention the constant honking that was reaching levels ab

Ah okay, I see. I was using NA as my example because it's what I know the most about, and I think it has the most obvious suburban form. There are other countries around the world that exhibit similar patterns. My point about single-fa

I'm not sure why type of ownership pertains here? I would say that in North America, single-family zoning has become the dominant form because it's been the cheapest to build. It should not be the cheapest to build. We haven'

Free will is part of the equation, but when good mid-density housing has been illegal in North America since WWII is it really a question of free will?

My apologies, I misread your comment and thought you were just looking for the meaning behind the style. I agree that the acronym should have been written out somewhere.

I disagree. The difference that I and many other people noticed on city streets during the initial COVID lockdowns was enormous. Cities aren’t loud places, the continuous white noise from passing passenger vehicles is the loud part. 60 km&#

This is one of several levels of security that law enforcement uses. These markings would also be changed quite often—having the wrong colour would make you stand out immediately.

I like your project, but I think the HDR halo effect [1] in your after photos is a little too pronounced. [1] - https://www.trentsizemore.com/2013/02/23/the-halo-effect-bad...

I'd recommend reading some of Jane Jacob's work, specifically The Death and Life of Great American Cities. It illustrates the ideas of street life and what makes great places. As for a direct idea, I'd try to get to know you
