Dallas Urbanists is hosting our Far North Dallas Hyperlocal Conversation on July 7 at Moon Wolf Provisions in Richardson and we would love to see some of you there.

Our Downtown Hyperlocal Conversation is this Thursday at 6:30 PM. Pegasus City Brewery. Free and open to everyone.

March Dallas Urbanists Mixer 💬 “Think Big, Talk Hyperlocal” It is mixer time again on March 28, and we are taking over a new spot at Frankie’s Downtown in downtown Dallas. Come talk urbanism, transit, zoning, and how to make the city more walkable, bikeable, affordable, and sustainable.

Do you ever look around Dallas and think, “This place could feel so much better to walk in, if we just decided to do it”? With the World Cup and new arenas on the horizon, we are at one of those rare moments where the city could either double down on cars or choose people instead.

WATCH: If you really STILL don’t understand how car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtown & all the urban parts of your city, please watch this EXCELLENT video by #NotJustBikes helped by #UrbanThree & @StrongTowns.org. And then please SHARE it as much as possible. youtu.be/7Nw6qyyrTeI

High-End Construction Really Does Help Everyone

A new rung at the top of the housing ladder permits people lower down to climb up.
