This blog springs from my passion for community. I believe that people can achieve at their highest level when in groups. Individual effort is leveraged by communal endeavor. Alone, we are just that.
I am a real estate developer by profession and by passion. I am not a New Urbanist. I am an URBANIST. I appreciate what the CNU aspires to. I believe they are driven by ideals consistent with my hopes for our built environment. But I find myself drawn inexorably to nostalgic reflections on what cities were as I contemplate what our communities should be. These are not new ideas. They are as old as the first society.
In this blog, I will consider any and all topics. They won't all be about real estate, and they won't all be about cities. But they will almost all involve the way people interact with each other, their environment and they community. After all, most of us draw a significant portion of our identity from our social context. It's what matters.
