*bathrooms in public spaces! Our city has a ton of parks and public spaces but many have no bathrooms or bathrooms with extremely limited hours. I can't enjoy a day at the park if there's no restroom.
*spaces for families. So many spaces are designed for adults or kids. Why can't a space be both?! A few friends are actually starting a bus…

*spaces for families. So many spaces are designed for adults or kids. Why can't a space be both?! A few friends are actually starting a business to make adult friendly spaces more accessible to children and I'm excited to see what they build.
*reliable public transit. It's been a disaster here since the pandemic. I'd love to drive less but when the alternative is waiting 20 mins for a bus that never comes, I'll stick with my car.
*multi-purpose spaces: you can't eat in a library, there's no table in the park, no bathrooms in the square...we need to rethink and rebuild so that spaces can serve more than one purpose.
I second the bathrooms in public spaces! So often it gets talked about as an issue for the unsheltered population which, yes is very true. But also folks with kids, folks with disabilities, folks like me who just have small bladders and want to be able to use a public restroom without having to either sneak into a Starbucks or buy something! Especially during Covid, this was a huge problem. I think our communities would be better functioning if everyone had access to free, or very low cost like in Europe where it's a euro, to use a clean bathroom while out and about.
I appreciate the note about multi purpose spaces. Yes. Yes. Let there be a cafeteria in the library. A table and community poster/announcements display in the park. Etc
