Is a cheap apron for woodworkers worth it?

woodworking No Comments »

I’ve wanted a decent apron for a while to help keep myself somewhat tidy and stop wrecking clothes when woodworking. This affordable affair for (at the point of writing this) 36.99 is a bargain I think!

What Makes Lifestyle Centers Bad for Cities: Investigating Heinous Land Uses, Episode 3

lifestyle No Comments »

In this third episode in our series on terrible land uses and everything that makes them bad for cities, we tackle Lifestyle Centers. We’ll look at the history of this type of outdoor shopping mall, which dates back to the 1980s, refine our definition of what it is, and use our case study to examine all the things that make them great…or heinous.

At the heart of today’s video is a case study on Town Square Las Vegas, a typical lifestyle center located on Las Vegas Boulevard (The Strip), a bit south of the resort corridor. We’ll look at all the things that go into its particular brand of simulated urbanism: the streetscapes, the architecture, the fixtures and furnishings, the plazas. And the we’ll zoom out and look at how Town Square interfaces with the regional transportation system and nearby land uses — and it isn’t a pleasant story.

All this — and much more! Hope you “enjoy.”
