The Arapaho Center Station redevelopment in Richardson is on hold due to unfavorable market conditions and high capital costs. The city, anticipating budget cuts and potential restrictions on economic development funding, will not pursue the project further until market conditions improve.

If you’re unfamiliar with “urbanism,” it's how inhabitants of urban areas, such as towns and cities, interact with the built environment. Positive urbanism inherently supports public transit and mixed use zoning, with an emphasis on making it easier to do everyday errands without needing a vehicle.

As a native Dallasite, I’ve noticed that there is quite a lack of this kind of infrastructure outside of very few places, which is crazy given the population size.

This doesn't apply to just DFW, but I’m working on a campaign to get local officials involved in supporting this kind of legislation forward. One small step in that is furthering the Build More Housing Near Transit Act. August is coming up, and if you want to get more involved in local politics, this is a great starting point.

Another good video of Knox-Henderson featuring the Knox St side with Knox MSD. The Katy Trail is shown here too (a segment of The Loop Dallas). Now, we just need Knox-Henderson Station built out.
