Aaron Lubeck and I sat down in Cincinnati, during CNU 32, to talk a lot about housing, policy, and how to actually make change. Aaron writes a Substack called On Housing, where he frequently explores these issues. And, he’s one of the founders of Southern Urbanism, which has a terrific array of writers and feature pieces.
Some of the posts we discuss:
I am Going to Gring Back the Sears Home
What’s Next for Jane Jacobs’ Sidewalk Ballet?
A Brief Detour to Honor My Old Lady
How North Carolina became a leader in building code reform to enable affordability.
From my archives:
Let Urban be Urban, Let Suburban be Suburban
