Tomorrow evening (Tuesday, April 12) we’ll be hosting another monthly meetup of The Urbanist! Our meetups are open to all and free to attend or drop in. We’ll be at the Belltown Pub on Tuesday, March 8th from 5.30pm to 7.30pm. You can find us in the loft space just beyond the bar area.

We’ll be joined by guest speaker Sonja Burseth, an Associate Planner with transportation consultancy Nelson/Nygaard. Sonja’s graduate research at the University of Washington looked into a shared parking model for empty spaces at multifamily developments on transit corridors. Sonja also works on a variety of other transit and non-motorized projects that seek to efficiently use limited urban space and provide mobility benefits equitably and economically. Around 6.30pm she’ll lead a casual 15-minute discussion and then be available to mingle one-on-one.

We look forward to it and hope to see you there!
