Joni Mitchell's 1970 song "Big Yellow Taxi" contained the line "They paved paradise to put up a parking lot" inspired by her first trip to Hawaii.

In #PavedParadise, @henrygrabar reminds us that several ITE leaders have denounced how its parking demand estimates have been used.
“We expected you to be smart!” says one former VP.
“Nobody on the ground knows ITE has changed their tune,” adds Daniel McKenna-Foster.

📷 Tonight I took 60 shots at an abandoned factory, but the results weren't what I expected. Just one shot I likelike, and I posted it —"Offices."
After a break, I took another look and had this thought: "Maybe a pretty picture isn't the goal tonight."
What then?
My new pictures are all shot on sacred #Cherokee land they were driven from, large parts of which are paved over.
I've nicked #JoniMitchell's #PavedParadise in other posts. That's what it is—"America."

"Parking is a mutant strain of yeast in the dough of architecture, making our designs bigger, uglier, and further apart".
I'm only a couple of pages into this book (a gift from a client who knows me too well!) and it's already throwing up some very quotable passages.

📷 Saturday morning in Jesusville is cloudy and cool, 62º and windy. The rain never came overnight, but it's on the way. They say probably an inch with winds up to 30 mph.
