    Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate.

    99% of his comments are about open streets and eliminating cars from the city. 🙄

    Nonsense, approximately half my comments are about building more housing and at least 10% are telling Eugene to go back to Long Island.

    I know that because I’ve been reading his comments for years. This is a public forum. Every now and then he’ll post something that I agree with…approx 1% of the time. 😉
