urbanism

Lazy take but I feel like in 20-50 years people are gonna look at suburbs fondly the way urbanists do today with mixed use buildings.

(Assuming we develop more localized commercial/retail fronts that aren't plazas or malls)

Doubt. Even if we develop more real urban fabric, there’s no way we can erase most or even some meaningful portion of existing suburban sprawl. Unlike how we erased basically all downtowns. in the 40s-80s

If we can get ADUs *maybe* we can one day commercial use ones.

I have a neighbor who converted all their lawn to raised beds and other food producing plants and they set up an unmanned kiosk on their sidewalk to let neighbors buy directly.

One can dream!

I hope and believe we will! There’s just SO much work to do, very daunting.
