ManhattanBP 2023 state of borough-

Make streets people centered #peoplecenteredmobility

Union square to Times Square - #pedestrianize #broadway ,

Public bathrooms in every neighborhood (at least one more per zip,

Containerize trash,

No more derelict sidewalk sheds,

Maybe don’t fill up residential neighborhoods w 5g towers,

Right to council in housing court… too many eviction cases now legal service providers are overwhelmed,

So let me do the introductions.

I'm Benjamin "Benjie" de la Peña. I'm the CEO of the Shared-Use Mobility Center, chair of the Global Partnership for Informal Transportation, and I occassionally send out makeshiftmobility.substack.com

I'm all about #InformalTransportation (a.k.a. #PopularTransportation) and #sharedmobility #peoplecenteredmobility

I love #cities and #urbanism
I believe that we can't fight #climatechange without addressing #equity. We need a #JustTransition.
