We have a private list going of urbanist writers who'll be at Strong Towns, CNU, YimbyTown, Abundance Con, Progress Con, whatever. Intention is to help folks connect IRL.
Wonderful work putting this list together! Before we started Urbanism Now I spent a good number of hours digging around to find great urbanist writers and didn't find anything nearly as comprehensive as this. Subscribed to a few of them today!
It would be appreciated if you could add Urbanism Now (https://urbanismnow.substack.com) to the list. Maria Paula Moreno Vivas and I focus on bringing together the best ideas from around the world to inspire action where you (c)are. It's a bit different than the folks doing deep dives on topics but a niche we were missing and decided to create.
PS: We'll be adding your reading list to your next issue!
Terrific list--many old favorites, and some I didn't know. Any chance you can add CityObservatory to this list? Our substack (https://cityobservatory.substack.com/) and website (cityobseratory.org) both provide free commentary on a range of urban issues, including housing, transportation, climate, economic development and equity.
Hey there!! I’m new to Substack but have been around the urbanism world for a while. I’m writing a Substack about parenting in cities (with a focus on the Rust Belt) called Neighborhood Mom
Might be worth looking into. I focus on how urban form changes driver behavior. Turns out, it is, and always has been, about the people, which means there are wide ranging implications in every type of urbanity.
What a great list Ryan & Diana, thanks for putting it together!
I picked up a few new ones I haven't come across yet. My Stack might fall into the Broader Beats section in case you're looking for any additional features :)
I was an urbanist, three books about cities, now place-ethereal—but relevant—I promise. https://resurgencejourney.substack.com/
Nice to encounter you here! I'll add you on the update.

Oh, great! Now that I'm back from traveling, I plan to update the list by the weekend with everyone we've found out about since publishing.
