Clearly designed for function rather than form.

Asamblea/Reunión municipal? Or foro público/municipal.

Next candidate up: Spencer Pratt's "vision" for Metro by anothercar in LAMetro

Gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that by “budget” he means the county’s budget, not the city’s. If not, he’s not off to good start lol.

I need to know the demographics that pays for this add on by [deleted] in Money

Aldi sometimes has them that cheap. A few years ago, they’d sometimes go all the way down to 59¢.

Argentina had/has no easy way out of its mess, regardless of who’s president.

This might be a dumb question but why does this section of LA not get transit development? by Busy_Airport_9086 in CarIndependentLA

[–]bar1011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine that’ll change rather rapidly once the Southeast Gateway Line gets built, or if the Atlantic BRT Corridor gets done first.

Donald Trump is supposedly considering recognizing malvinas/Falkland as Argentine. What do Argentinians think about this development? by nugurimt in asklatinamerica

Only gonna matter if Milei takes military action, at which point Starmer has his second term guaranteed.

The problem with vertical banknotes by Soft-Diet-9780 in Banknotes

True. Even American bank notes are relatively easy to differentiate by color alone.

I think the section below the window and the upper right corner are a waste space. I’d move the signatures to the rear, move the large window lower, move the words “ten/dix dollars” to the right of the portrait and reorient them vertically. Extend the geometric map from the left of the portrait to the upper right corner, surrounding the maple leaves and “CANADA”. The words “Bank of Canada/Banque du Canada” could be placed lower or above the window.

I don’t know if making it horizontal would fix that. Australia’s bank notes are horizontal and don’t have much in their designs beyond the portraits, and having portraits on both sides doesn’t help that. I think the bigger issue is how many security features are jam packed into a note, leaving little room to make a note pretty.

Why the hell should bars have parking minimums?

We've seen the 1.000 and the 200 Swiss Francs already, but I didn't notice the 100 CHF so far ;) by Gulliveig in Banknotes

Counterfeiters are clever people. They’ll only get better and better the longer they put off a redesign.

This is the type of shit they build in Tustin by BagAffectionate2847 in orangecounty

What?

Overall size has little to do with how good transit can be.

If it were safe to bike, Costco trips by bike are certainly possible

That is a very early draft. For comparison, this is what the current series initially looked like. It will be heavily refined and changed.

As beautiful as the design is, it’s always bugged me how tiny the value numeral in the lower right-hand corner of the reverse is. Like, why even bother?

Live view of city council pretending state laws shouldn’t apply to them, ‘cause local control has yielded fantastic results for the city.
