    Idea for fixing the housing shortage

    To extend this, to a certain degree thats also the practice in certain European countries, where housing is only delivered with the bare minimum to satisfy legal requirements, not basically move in ready as is the general US practice. That can extend to even rentals; Germany is somewhat well...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Lets try an hopefully actually easy one: this airport serving this economically struggling city for many years only had air service from Spirit until an additional carrier recently brought additional flights but as yet not new destinations. This airport currently has fewer daily departures than...

    Sorry y'all and @Portlander - I legitimately thought this one was gonna be easy considering its relative proximity. It's definitely the least known of the PANYNJ facilities.

    Housing (Supply Crisis & Public Policy)

    To extend this a bit further, I also think we should incentivize zero lot lines again, through allowing that increased square footage/coverage in exchange for higher construction standards (in fireproofing or other) - I want to incentivize row houses in the back bay / south end sense, and places...

    Seeing no takers, this is Fort Smith Regional in Arkansas, having lost traffic to XNA serving Bentonville, which is now the busiest airport in AR.

    Acela & Amtrak NEC (HSR BOS-NYP-WAS and branches only)

    Anecdotally, I've seen a lot of complaints on social media about the seats ergonomics on the new Acela - folks didn't like the Venture seats, they really don't like these.

    Super easy I take it? fun fact, all regional service for all 3 legacies that operate here is provided by Skywest, which like Southwest originated as a pre1979 intrastate carrier. Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport, AMA, Amarillo TX! You may not be familiar with this airport which has...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Ill bite this one since its been sitting for a few days - Hector International Airport, Fargo ND. HHH evidently needed a clue, so here's a much easier one! (I tend to pick something I find "interesting," for one reason for another - HHH struck me for how leafy its terminal area is, to the point...

    I really want to say Canton OH, but I'm almost certain I'm wrong.

    Tallest building in town, can you name the city?

    This very retro pastel condo tower contains almost everything a resident may need in this maritime community which, if Wikipedia is accurate, is planning its second passenger rail stop.

    Roads and Highways General Development Thread

    For reference, the ca2019 DCR alternatives, before its bridge portfolio was handed to MassDOT. Notably, MassDOT unlike DCR doesn't make any reference to parkland greenspace in its proposals. This, right here, is why I generally think roadways which occupy space that should be managed for...

    😅 going back to my "unexpected piece of a major airport" approach with that one and the Janet Terminal at LAS, (edit, and CBX @ TIJ) surely no one would expect such at a large hub! CAE, Columbia Metropolitan Airport, Columbia SC

    Telluride CO! Current highest altitude of commercial airports in the US, plus a shorter runway, doesn't support what is often anemic regional jet performance.

    Behold, my Google maps layer tagging and annotating allmost all 433 FAR part 139 certified airports below index E that recieves scheduled service... which doesn't include those that get it via "unscheduled" public charter or some 135 commuter ops. Based on these last two, I need one more layer...

    This landside terminal and port of entry at this international airport is likely to lead to claims that this entry is ineligible.

    Name these US Airports from above

    Just an attempt at a humorous clue - i was emulating redaction as Janet is the top secret employee shuttle airline that flies into Area 51, about which basically nothing is publicly known except that it has a fleet of 6 basically unmarked 737s that does that. I didn't think it was obviously a...
