The Norfolk Missing Middle project looks interesting- having some pre-approved designs seems like a good way to ease development. Boosting smaller units isn’t exactly the dream, but with smaller household sizes it is more reasonable, and of course cheaper as the article mentions.

If "gentrification" is a crisis in SF, could those gentry please come live in DC. We need the tax revenue.

The Washington Mero has terrible directions. What about painting arrow on the floors and walls? Redundant indications next station AND final destination AND to/away from Metro Center. And although better than before stations are still gloomy. What about more LIGHT! And the public address system acoustics are so bad it only serves to interrupt one's podcast.

But the trains are running with much less delay than a few months ago. Good for someone in Metro administration!
