Transit

[close] A DC Urban Planning Book Club We meet in DC on the first Wednesday of even-numbered months to discuss books about transportation, transit, and urban planning, at home and abroad. (Note that since the start of the pandemic, we moved to meeting online rather than in-person, and as we now have a number of non-DC-local regular members, are remaining online in 2023.) Although we try to keep our bookshelves here up-to-date with currently reading, previously read, and books we're considering reading, most of the active members of the group prefer to use Facebook for our events and sharing links, so look on our group there (linked as the group website) for more details.

[close] Often times while on transit it is the only time we can commit to reading. Reading while riding can also be a different way to create or begin a community, by connecting and interacting over what you are reading. Public transit organically creates diverse mobile communities. This is a book club designed for but not limited to public transit riders and commuters. While there are multiple ways to spend your time while using public transit. Daily Commuting is the perfect way to take time to read.

[close] We'll (re)read The Power Broker and take it from there!

[close] This is a book group for all members of the New Urbanist Memes for Transit-Oriented Teens Facebook group. It stems from a discussion on the best urban and transit literature, and will act as a space for discourse on all things Urban.
