Jonathan Maus, the prolific editor over at [Bike Portland](http://bikeportland.org), did a very nice [write-up of our session yesterday](http://bikeportland.org/2008/06/18/a-look-inside-new-york-citys-burgeoning-livable-streets-movement/) at the [_Towards Carfree Cities_](https://www.nickgrossman.xyz/2008/06/lsn-at-the-carfree-cities-conference/) conference. The comments coming in over there so far have been amazingly positive, which is really encouraging. Btw, the photo, above, of Aaron Naparstek is weirdly reminiscent of this one, no?
