A friend pointed me to this site a few weeks ago and I decided to relive my childhood dreams and create my own superheros based on my urbanist alter egos.

Captain Yurban is me at my best, when I’m organizing events like Jane’s Walk or Park(ing) Day, when I’m connecting the dots and exploring new ideas. He is found hanging out at cool adaptive use projects like the Gold Spot or Lux.

The Yurbanator is my darker side.  He comes out when I get frustrated with dealing with obstinate developers, cynical residents, or ego driven politicians. You’ll find him at sites of needless demolition like the Ramada/Safari or missed opportunities like CityScape.
