Another week without posts (from me, at least), another giant consolation link list! I've got a lot of them piling up and probably won't be back to regular posting for a few more days, so I'll try to spread them out over a few posts. 1. Wendell Cox's Demographia came out with its 2010 … [Read more...]

Your consolation link list
Apologies to everyone for the light posting – over the next few weeks I may be a bit busy with job and internship applications (any suggestions for work or job offers would be very much appreciated!), but hopefully I'll still be able to put up a few posts a week. But for now, all you get is this … [Read more...]
Matt Yglesias’ proposal for reforming DC’s ANC’s
At the risk of turning Market Urbanism into Reblogging Matt Yglesias, here's another interesting post from the blogosphere's most famous market urbanist about reforming DC's Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) system. After discussing a recent decision by an ANC incumbent to deny Five Guys … [Read more...]
Mortgage-interest tax deduction cuts on the table

Hell freezes over, or: the one in which I agree with Randal O’Toole’s argument over Shoup’s
I never thought the day would come, but I actually find myself taking issue with Donald Shoup's recent criticism of the Cato Institute (which Randal O'Toole works for) and its own DC headquarters' employee parking program. While I agree with Shoup's more general critique of Cato's stance on … [Read more...]
No ARC without TOD
A lot of fuss has been made by urbanists about how important the ARC transit tunnel under the Hudson is to curbing sprawl in North Jersey, but frankly I'm not convinced that more commuter rail into Manhattan is the cure for what ails New Jersey. The state's fundamental problem is its reliance on … [Read more...]
