So excited to see this article out in the world! A Herculean task by Zbigniew J Grabowski coding & analyzing these plans with fabulous visualizations of the results! This article pairs nicely with our GI lit review, reinforcing findings across theory & practice: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The evolution of urban planning during the pandemic will continue to drive interest in the assets cities have been classifying as green infrastructure, according to Zbigniew J Grabowski. Maria Rachal reports on a new Cary Institute report: smartcitiesdive.com/news/how-citie…
