Ken Rosen, chairman of real estate market research firm Rosen Consulting, said cities and regions would be wise to use a good portion of their share of previous stimulus bill funding for government, plus the $1.2-trillion infrastructure funding, to improve diverse housing and transit opportunities where people live and work.

Allow more density near transit.
Relax costly parking requirements for residential next to transit,” he said.

Nice essay on your experience of air india flight change policy, Mrunalini. I always dread that airlines and always look for alternatives even if that means longer flight or pricier fare. The experiences I have heard from others are similar to yours. I am moved by Tanay's observation. It's so true. People make the airline what it is. If some (the airline staff especially) can do the right thing, it would flourish.
