Tacoma Urbanist Appears in Streetfilm Clip With A.U.T.O. Lobbyist Veronica Moss
Tacoma has had many of its urban improvement efforts opposed by A.U.T.O. Lobbyist Veroinca Moss such as the traffic calming measures on 21st Street.
On January 19th, I travelled to NYC to watch Moss rail against the street improvement efforts in NYC in her words to "stop the propaganda" before the Streetfilms group. Many of the Streetfilm pieces are shown in Tacoma to help our city make better urban design issues such as the proper construction of separated bike lanes.
Here is the clip from her presentation and I am honored to have made the final cut.
