No I've not used this in forever, yes it's me, and yes, I'm stunned I'm still here too. #staytuned =0)

"The next wave of transit for detroit will hopefully be bus rapid transit along all the radial corridors" -sue mosey

Mosey asks Penalosa how to make transit "more attractive". He kills it: "people use transit because they have to, not because it looks good"

"For people to use public transit here, it needs to be fast, frequent" -Penalosa

"Car use generates all sorts of social cost, to use them. This is difficult to talk about, especially in Detroit" -Penalosa

Sommer Woods, m1 rail, on transit as a status: "its tough for people to do transit because of all the politics"

Man M1 really hired a slick fast talker. She went from talking about status to talking about how m1 will enable someone to go to ann arbor.

Mosey: "we would have loved to have had your (bogotas) budget" ooooooooh

Mosey, on development and transit: "lots of restaurant and plenty of beer!"

Lol this guy Andy from the bus company about transit equity, I just can't.

Woods (m1) "we are a 32% detroit based businesses building our rail" oh lordy

And now a question w/ someone mentioning slow roll as a grassroots movement? Oh hell. I might have to leave.

Penalosa talking on Ciclavia, carless sundays on 100k(62ish miles) of roads that have been de-carred. "The funnest things in life are sin"

For the record, the vaaaaaast majority of people riding slow roll come from the suburbs and drive their cars in. grassroots, perhaps?

"A good park does not win architectural prizes, a good park is one that people want to be in" -Penalosa

Our closer thanks #EnriquePenalosa for removing some skepticism, but to be honest, mine is stronger than ever...

Lol they asked him what he would do if mayor. Hello, we have an emergency manager... does he know about that? So much disconnect right now

Grateful that Assemble (ahem) assembled these folks tho. Takes traction.

But the people lining up to take their pic with the guy who bought the packard. Hilarious.

Also #enriquepenalosa made eye contact with me and approached me to shake my hand. #brusheswithgreatness / #brownrecognizebrown
