What makes for a "strong town"? | Chuck Marohn | TEDxMidAtlantic

- Renowned urban planner and engineer Chuck Marohn offers some explanations for what makes a place great - and it's not always flashy new developments. He argues that true strength comes from the kind of complex interactions that occur when people really care about a place, and which ultimately produce more in tax revenue than they cost in services. Improving places that already have strengths can sometimes lead to outsized results. Great cities are the culmination of generations of hard work, and we can lay the groundwork for great places in the future by caring for people today. Charles Marohn - known as “Chuck” to friends and colleagues is the Founder and President of Strong Towns, and the lead author of Thoughts on Building Strong Towns - Volume 1, Volume 2 and Volume 3 - as well as the author of A World Class Transportation System. He hosts the Strong Towns Podcast and is a primary writer for Strong Towns’ web content. He has presented Strong Towns concepts in hundreds of cities and towns across North America and in 2017 was named one of the 10 Most Influential Urbanists of all time by Planetizen.
Marohn is a Professional Engineer (PE) licensed in the State of Minnesota and a member of the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP). Marohn has a bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Minnesota’s Institute of Technology and a Master of Urban and Regional Planning degree from the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey Institute.
Marohn is a long time commentator on KAXE Northern Community Radio. He currently co-hosts KAXE’s Dig Deep program, a monthly examination of public policy issues affecting Minnesotans.
Chuck grew up on a small farm in Central Minnesota. The oldest of three sons of two elementary school teachers, he joined the Minnesota National Guard on his 17th birthday during his junior year of high school and served for nine years. In addition to being passionate about building a stronger America, he loves playing music, is an obsessive reader and religiously follows his favorite team, the Minnesota Twins. Chuck and his wife live with their two daughters in their hometown of Brainerd, Minnesota. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

So glad NotJustBikes shed light on Strong Towns, this is genius
I see you found Strong Towns from NJB as well! Me too!
Lol bike shed
@@flipvdfluitketel867 heh
We are so thrilled we found Strong Towns and the Not Just Bikes. Positive change is so needed in this country.
“We need to look at the way our people are using the city”
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
to add to this, an iterative approach can also serve as a positive feedback loop. You improve places to the point they become desirable to local business, and the free market will make those gradual improvements over time. If you sap the economic productivity of a place by gutting commercial density and mixed use, it will always be a place that requires a lifeline, either through federal grants or through local tax revenue . The wholesale destruction of these vibrant places and the millions of dollars spent on urban renewal and suburbanization in post war America accelerated the negative feedback many cities are still stuck in, all on the backs of tax payers.
Exactly. It’s funny when I see conservatives and libertarians oppose these ideas because they require government intervention. The status quo already requires huge amounts of government subsidies to make it even function because the free market can’t even operate properly.
@@chickennoodle6620 Hit the nail on the head. Not to mention the intergenerational wealth that their family benefited from (i.e. homeownership) was likely highly subsidized by post-war suburban centric policy. Meanwhile they point their fingers at communities of color and yell "pull yourself up by your bootstraps". It's completely backwards and American literacy on these topics and our history is astonishingly bad.
The mindset imposed into the youths who are the revolution of a society can play a great role in maintaining a well developed society for everyone...
I agree with that...
Am 19yrs old,Gonna turn 20 on April but am soo proud of what I have achieved so far in life.All thanks to my parents especially my dad who battled me into accepting the challenge of investing.
@@olivianoah2636 Seing a brave young lady for the first time in a while👏..
@@olivianoah2636 Having such a wonderful mindset at the early stages of your life will be so fruitful to you in years ahead If you maintain your good standards and keep investing.
@@olivianoah2636 Investments?
How possible has that been for you?
Unfortunately politics in America is stagnated in the cultural concept of shortsighted growth without consideration of the distant future, borrowing more and more wealth from future generations to do the opposite of what this video is trying to convince people to do. In this lobbyist state the federal government is incentivized by mega corporate duty to increase quarterly revenue rather than 20-year revenue. We need to stop looking next quarter. We need to stop making shortsighted decisions. But with our culture I just don’t see that happening.
Cleveland OH needs this movement
Thank you, that is a fantastic primer to Strong Towns. But no Jimmy's Pizza?
Not Just Bikes, anyone?
Charles Marohn is one of those rare Republicans that aren't overly attached to financially insolvent suburbia. This guy is actually practicing what he preaches (fiscal conservatism). They'd probably call him a RINO nowadays.
Doesn't seem like a rino to me
yeah otherway arround; the RINOs are the pro subsidy republicans, the DINOs are the pro-war democrats. e.g. all politicians.
RINO's support Democrat-lite policies and paying for today with tomorrow's dollars- the opposite of fiscal conservatism. Is this what you would consider Charles Marohn?
The paranoia over 15 Minute Cities proves your point
Great talk!

How is a tiny attorney’s office more productive than a Walmart?
It isn't, but the sum of all the businesses on one small, traditional block sure are more productive than a Walmart, and are way more adaptable too
Taxable value per square foot, probably.
It produces more revenue per acre, probably because 70% of the acreage at Walmart is a parking lot.
@@morganharris2413 Yep. Typical Walmart in the US is located within a 34 acre parking lot. But Walmart operates in 20 countries. I found a bunch of Walmart Express in Mexico City with no parking lots that take up less than 1/4 acre of space. It's just the groceries and other things you'd find at a grocery store, but its value relative to acreage is off the charts.

We'd lose fewer homes to fires and tornadoes if we lived in hobbit holes
Yep give your time and money for the benefit of others = Your now all poor
It is regrettable nobody volunteered to teach you the difference between "your" and "you're", or "cities" and "citys", in what I presume to be your first language. Perhaps you should use the free market to remedy this issue.
@@flagrarus How am I wrong though.... Also you understood what I was saying so doesn't matter how I spell -_-
@@ArkNation6666 You seem pretty antisocial, in the most literal sense.
I'm sorry your parents raised a sociopath.
You already do. It's called living in a society
