My ideal street layout, wide sidewalk, wide bike lanes, and a 2 lane road that only allows streetcars on it. Yes I know this a bad drawing, I made it in a hurry
Are those (black circles w/ small things) supposed to be eg cafe chairs?
If so, they’re posing an accessibility issue due to blocking the sidewalks. Recommend your street layout allow for outdoor seating without blocking sidewalks.
Agreed. The foundation is sound, but there needs to be plenty of space to walk by seating without getting run over by a bike. Seating that hugs the walls of the nearby structure, and open storefronts that let people and services flow seamlessly between the commercial spaces and the sidewalks would be an improvement here.
I actually shrunk the seating to make there be more space for pedestrians
If the tracked area is for trams/streetcars only, may I recommend that you make it green track?
Not only does it add much needed greenery to public spaces, but it also reduces heat at street level, reduces the running noise of trams and dramatically improves water drainage at street level. It even goes as far as reducing the damage to the tracks caused by the material expanding and buckling in high heat by simply keeping the rails cooler and better displacing heat.
It doesn't even have to be grass! Different species of plant, local species or hardier, low-maintenance species can be used, and furthermore, it tends to reduce maintenance costs of the tracks, as soil is easier to dig up than concrete or tarmac, and so the tracks can be accessed and worked on easier.
Obviously, if you want the street to be able to accept buses along with trams/streetcars, or other rubber-tyred vehicles, then a hard surface is necessary, but if it's light rail only, then green track gets my vote.
Already made the edit, I hope you enjoy the green tracks and their flowers. This image is very green
Redoing the color of the bike path to make the street less fucking green
I love the idea of green tracks, but in this case they are not a good choice:
You still need the possibility for rubber based vehicles like Fire Cars or Ambulances to pass the streets.
You can't just put them on tracks because they need to be as mobile as possible to allow maximum efficency.
Okay removing the grass due to firecodes
Urbanism pride flag lol
we still need green so maybe put flowerpots in the middle of the sidewalk? Like rectangular ones that only take up maybe a fifth of the sidewalk width, and their intermittent, maybe one between every other set of trees.
The street planters have come in
Honestly if you want some good green space you should consider bioswales between the bike facilities and the "street", which would help replace some of the lost drainage/filtration function from de-greening the track
The bios have been swaled
ALT@puddlebrigade Okay the tables have been moved and reduced to be more accessible and some planters have been moved
ALTThe large dark green dots are trees
Is it too soon for this?
Yes, you aren’t even on the current version
Sidewalk seems a little tight tbh
Sidewalk widened. Goal achieved
ALT@i-use-oxford-comma The benches have been added and @prawnhubpremium The dragon is opening a shop
ALTWe are making a good street
I made a 3d render of our street
Oh my god, that looks like a real place I could visit, I love this

That thing with some garlic butter sauce would be fucking fantastic

“Author of 25+ best-selling Pride & Prejudice variations”
Yeah, no.
Okay, so I was in Jane Austen fandom for a while. It is extremely common for people to self-publish their fics and sell them because it’s public domain and totally fine legally. There’s even a handful of extremely niche publishers who handle it.
I never interacted with this woman (because she was mostly on the publishing side and not the posting-on-forums-or-AO3 side where I was) but I knew of her. She was infamous. I’m honestly surprised she’s only saying she’s written 25+ because at one point she was producing 8+ a year. Nobody really understood it. Even if you’re producing crap, it still takes time to get that many words down.
This was back in 2018 or so. I’m shocked she’s not at 250+ by now.
My question is how does this make any money even at volume.
People who defend outdoor cats, go google "botfly" right now O_O
