I wrote Frontier City with 2018 (& beyond) in mind. What happened here can repeat & happen elsewhere, & can be lessons for other cities. Themes/people/issues in the book continue to arise. I’ll highlight pertinent bits in this thread over time.pic.twitter.com/AFRQNUm5zn

Today’s walk / bike ride. 28 human powered KMs thru LA. Mostly bike. Small sample size but so far: motorists way more respectful than in Toronto. LA is like Berlin: something looks close on map but city is so BIG takes longer to get there. Now a rest before night shift.pic.twitter.com/RUwWusnLbD

Friday night food truck fest in Venice. Most elaborate food trucks. One has a whole woodfired pizza over. One was for pasta. One was for hummus. Etc.pic.twitter.com/AIGrjWTlYZ

Back in Venice on Abbot Kinney (main non-seafront retail strip) low rider rickshaw bike was playing Hotel California loud (true). Note: Newfoundland dog in the shadows. Good dog town, this one. Happy dogs, no salt.pic.twitter.com/sQdQKHA5LX – At A. Kinney Court

I spent time at the
#HongKongMuseumofHistory over the holiday and was surprised to see my@TorontoStar story about the island's return to China in 1997 mounted on its wall. What an honour to have one's work found inside a history museum

“The seven original canals of Venice, California, are lost to history -- long ago filled in, paved over, and converted into residential streets.”https://www.kcet.org/shows/lost-la/lost-canals …

Here's my 1st
@NatObserver story of 2019. This is the story of how Ontario created its Lorax: the Environmental Commissioner of Ontario. Then the Doug Ford gov't came to be & axed the watchdog office, saying it can police itself. What happens now?#onpolihttps://www.nationalobserver.com/2019/01/04/news/ontario-environment-watchdogs-say-doug-ford-just-gutted-law-protects-your-rights …Show this threadThanks.

Something of a Frank Gehry day. Here’s his own house. The former Torontonian bought it this 1920 bungalow & in 1978 or so wrapped it in chain link, plywood and corrugated steel. Never appreciated how intact the form of the old house was from pics. What a thing.pic.twitter.com/TYriBbEaD5

So much great density in Santa Monica. 2 and 3 storey deals. Deep lots, lots of apartments. I don’t know if it’s annoying to locals but I keep looking “which one might be the 3’s Company walk up”. Needs to be close retail strip aka Regal Beagle. Wide roads tho!pic.twitter.com/sRbfRARjdI

This is flatly untrue. The most distinctive buildings on the site - Cinesphere and Pods - are fully or nearly renovated.

This is very significant.
@fordnation government is signalling a complete overhaul of Ontario Place "in any way that Ford wants it to be rebuilt."#topoli#onpoli@OntarioPlacehttps://twitter.com/jessiecatherine/status/1081252988444913665 …Thanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -

The Spiller House was one of Gehry’s projects that first drew me to his work, even before I studied architecture. My childhood fort was made by my dad out of plywood, studs & galvanized sheet steel—I loved Gehry’s material, tectonic rawness.pic.twitter.com/iqBCemeG3o
