Our cities are full of ghost projects. Lost opportunities. Potentialities that could have prioritized safe streets or public health. Transit station with homes for cars, instead of a neighborhood for people. Streets that prioritize speeding cars, instead of safety and sustainable mobility.

But the reality of our cities, at least in the U.S. – is that we don’t realize those opportunities.

Often, these ghost projects were eliminated or watered down to preserve single family zoning or parking.

We waste these opportunities - opportunities to make our cities better, more equitable, healthier... And we do it largely to preserve a deeply unsustainable and inequitable status quo.

And so…
I see ghost projects.

They haunt my dreams.
They’re… everywhere.
