Andres Duany is an incredible leader and thinker. I’m so glad to be able to learn from him. Thanks for uploading, CNU!
I would really like to see this elevated freeway removed to ground level. It would be amazing! Our politicians have to stop accepting money to keep voting it down though.
Bravo. So relatable and so current. Thanks.
That's the matter how nice it's gonna bring.Once people from Illinois start living in Indiana, things will get worse.The hood will be in your back door
Unavailable to view in Canada, unfortunately.
Pretty disgusting he smokes. I figured is progressive’s would be above that. I don’t care he ficked some underprivileged Hispanic. The smoking is where I draw the line
Send this communist back to Cuba where he belongs.
Awesome discussion! Thank you for all your insights. Both your projects sound very intriguing.
You're dreaming that downtown area will never be the same I used to go down there when I was a kid and hang out there was all sorts of stories to go into you're going to have to rebuild it back up like that and do businesses want to go there I doubt it because everything's on the internet now
That downtown Hammond is never coming back. All they can do is make it more up to today's standards and that bar is pretty low.
01:25 Great stuff!
Great seeing this beautiful drawings!
So far from what I've seen there is no argument for walkable cities or a plan, justvloads of grifters selling snake oil
Thank-You For The Post!
Skip pleasantries, housekeeping to 2:35 start
WooA new vid!
This needs more views
Especially with it being a decade old video
make more soccer fields please 🙏🙏🙏
Make more green spaces in general.
It would be great to automatically integrate approved custom plans to the 'pre-approved' plans
Great content! Thanks for sharing! I'm wondering if it would be worth considering the custom approved designs, and automatically moving those into the pre-approved category.
can i buy this book as a ebook?
Really enjoyed the pausing to consider: “How long you are willing to spend getting somewhere, depends on how long you will spend at the destination.” Thanks to all who put this together!
Architects will out of jobs ?
Enjoyed this thoroughly (live). Thanks to all involved!
Yeah, city still looks like crap, so none of this happened.
Hammond had a thriving downtown and people stopped going there anyway for whatever reasons. Is this noble effort really going to bring a lot of them back? It could be a huge waste of precious resources.
Many stopped going because of the downtown area being constantly gridlocked by train traffic and no parking. They finally built an elevated parking garage but it was about three decades too late.
People stopped going there because of the advent of the shopping mall. Now we have internet shopping which is a hammer blow to the shopping mall. This effort is the least noble and a waste of resources. I wonder how much money was paid to this development firm to dream up this "master plan"???
@@QAlba1074 it’s probably best not knowing, the more you become aware of the waste, mismanagement, grift and so forth the worse the entire picture becomes, leading to sleepless nights and indigestion.
Let's leave opur city to rot and send resources where?
@@nightbreeze12 the massive infrastructure that already exists could be repaired, oh lets see...an update to the sanitation plant so we can finally quit dumping raw sewage into the calumet river when there is an "overage"...and on an on an on...but see...those type of projects are hard to grift off of or make tammany hall style patronage sweetheart deals....
What some idiots have forgotten is what built and made hammond what it once was, the steal mills have been sold and removed, any and all factories have been sold and are gone, all of the mom and pop shops and restaraunts are gone, just my opinion, i lived in hammond from 1963 to 1979, i watched its slow death that started well before i came along, you folks waisting time and someones money on projects that are the most ridiculous fantasy ive seen in my 60 years, look at the history the pictures the films what an unfortunate that mind believes that can be brought back, all these ideas are a silly proposition brought on by even sillier people, northern lake county was murderd, let it rest with what diginty some of us knew,
Wow! It's so exciting living in a city that's clearly willing to adapt and change for the future. I can't wait to learn more about how I can make a difference in my community :]
Looking forward to what's next!
new urbanism education is superb.shube thank you
The coyote & bobcat attacks (caught on camera) is very traumatizing to people.
Bigger coyotes in our area can get aggressive. Smaller ones are not.
Most female adv degrees are not in stem.
Whites are super at fucking shit up and then turn around and pretend they are solving the problem they created
HMD!!!
Why is the CNU talking about queer feminism? This looks bad on the brand
I reached out directly to CNU to have this conversation and this is the title I've developed for my framework. I will be having this conversation many times on many different platforms including my own @The Black Urbanist platform over the next few months. Yes, I do think this shouldn't be the only engagement they have on these issues and I'm not afraid to say that even after making this strategic partnership to promote my work.
Never been to Hammond, but this was a great video presentation and city has a pretty nice looking downtown district and one that’s in a beautiful revitalization period.. 🙌🏼👍👏🏼🏢🚧📸😃
This is a great framework!
You remove the hospital you are stupid for doing that.
Audio level is too low☹️
Mayor Joseph Riley is our inspiration as we breathe life back into South DWNTN Atlanta.
Grew up in Hammond. Too many mistakes made there over the years. Buildings demolished that should have been saved. No incentives for businesses to stay. The master plan is a start, but a lot of other things will have to happen to make downtown Hammond viable again…
A main thing they need to do is to finally build over-or-underpasses to EVERY street that runs across the train tracks. The trains are ever-present and interminably long. Who wants to go downtown if you're always hit with a 45 minute wait for a train to pass in order to leave?

C3 shouldn't be built unless you have a 20-foot planting strip between the road and the sidewalk and there's a row of canopy trees in the planting strip. Don't tell me it can't be done, because it already exists. See S Apopka Vineland Rd. between SR 526 and Conroy Windemere Rd. It's the best multilane road in the entire state.
It seems that the problems are due to a lack of feedback and design change mechanisms in the code. The lack of adaptability and it’s grotesque results of being stuck in a paradigm has caused the entrenchment of the pattern and it’s ubiquitous reality. The lack of shared resource vs each lot to its own requirements
I don't love the chinzy style of these videos
The transect has an error, in that it rates each transect from more to less walkable. Any of those transects can be extremely walkable if built right. There are very few places in Japan that aren't pleasant to walk in. In Japan the roads are built for people.
I was wondering when it would be as well. There seems to be a lack of spread of news about good urbanism events. I never knew of the many organizations in Cincinnati, I wish I did when I was younger. I would’ve loved to help out more.
How is my commuting into work and never having to essentially "touch the city" as you say, how is that privilege? I take 787 into work Monday thru Friday. If you guys turn it into a grade intersection Boulevard, traffic will be more of a nightmare than it already is.
It seems pretty obvious that the dates should have been included?
Looks great!
