Chicago's newly passed “green social housing” ordinance creates a city-owned, nonprofit developer that will issue loans to companies that build eco-friendly homes. Reset breaks down what's in the plan and gets thoughts on this approach from affordable housing advocates Daniel Kay Hertz of Impact for Equity and Courtney Hanson of People for Community Recovery.

Amanda's passion for public finance harkens back to her undergrad days. Yet before grad school, she had never intended to pursue applied public policy work. Her interest in social theory and the effects of capitalism in international aid and development led her to pursue an MA in geography. After finishing her thesis on post-earthquake reconstruction efforts in Haiti, she landed a job researching Illinois' public pension systems.Soon, she was neck deep in public finance questions reminiscent of her scholarship. Reveling in that work led Amanda to reconsider her future career. And when she discovered that University of Illinois at Chicago's PhD in urban planning and policy program included faculty with geography and public finance experience, she found her doctoral calling. Now her work at UIC's Government Finance Research Center continues the thread of helping people understand where their money goes—and how it's being used. Had Amanda not been open to a job in applied policy, she might never have found industry work she loves. Note: Apologies in advance to listeners without strong Illinois or Chicago ties. We delve into the weeds a bit — just a bit — of Land of Lincoln and Windy City taxes and finances. But to the locals: Enjoy! Resources mentionedAmanda and Daniel Kay Hertz's TIF ExplainerHow I Built This podcastWhere to find Amanda and the Government Finance Research CenterAmandaKass.blogAmanda on TwitterUIC's Government Finance Research CenterCheck out more from The Work SeminarVisit theworkseminar.com or find @TheWorkSeminar on social media. Sign up for The Work Seminar newsletter to receive updates straight to your inbox.Support the show

Each month this year, we're going to revisit an episode from the 200+ episodes in the AirGo Archives and bring that conversation back to the forefront. This month, we're revisiting our convo with author, urban planner, and policy maker Daniel Kay Hertz from 2016. Since we recorded this episode in Daniel's old apartment, DKH has become the Policy Director for the Chicago Department of Housing(!). He's also still a cutie-pie.

The founder of the Young Lords Cha Cha Jimenez and Daniel Kay Hertz, Chicago's new executive director of policy in the Lightfoot Department of Housing, author of The Battle of Lincoln Park, Urban Renewal and Gentrification in Chicago join us live in studio. 

A hyper-local conversation: Who knew that the Chicago neighborhood 'Old Town' was actually part of Lincoln Park? Who knew it was a site of transformation, displacement, resistance, gentrification, AND urban renewal? ​Monica and Page sat down with author and policy analyst Daniel Kay Hertz to talk about his new book, The Battle of Lincoln Park: Urban Renewal and Gentrification in Chicago, published by Belt.

Ken Davis is joined by Daniel Kay Hertz, author of The Battle of Lincoln Park. They discuss the profound impact that urban renewal had on the mid-century development of Lincoln Park, when early artists and rehabbers began reconstructing dilapidated brownstones and Victorians in the Old Town Triangle. Although the process began almost a hundred years ago, the patterns of displacement and gentrification are almost identical to those being criticized today in Pilsen, Logan Square and along the 606. This program was produced by Chicago Access Network Television (CAN TV).

Daniel Kay Hertz teamed up with City Bureau to bring Chicagoins together to produce equitable media coverage, encourage civic participation and hold powerful forces to account. He is aiming to mold a new narrative of Chicago's past, present, and future and discussed how organizing workshops around Chicago's South side is the perfect way to do that.

In the first segment we talk with Daniel Kay Hertz about his book "The Battle of Lincoln Park: Urban Renewal and Gentrification in Chicago", which looks at the history of an iconic Chicago neighborhood. We talk about its buildup during Urban Renewal (where large swathes of land were taken by municipalities (around the country) under imminent domain) and how this community became a prime destination for new renters, and the politics that cost many of them their homes. In the second half Tariq comments on the Jason Van Dyke verdict and why its a sign of hope that police accountability can become the norm. Guest- Daniel Kay Hertz Host/Producer-Tariq I.

Ken Davis is joined by urban policy writer Daniel Kay Hertz. They discuss the CTA’s plan to extend the Red Line to 130th street and an alternative Hertz proposed in the South Side Weekly to institute rapid-transit-style service on nearby Metra tracks. They also talk about seemingly-stalled efforts to build a Bus Rapid Transit line along Ashland Avenue, and the possibility that autonomous vehicles could someday completely reinvent what we think of today as public transportation. They also discuss the possible loss of the Thompson Center, which Hertz says will one day be included in photo-books of lost architectural treasures. And he extolls the virtues of four-plus-one apartment buildings. This program was produced by Chicago Access Network Television (CAN TV).

Now that a native New Yorker real estate agent is our president-elect, cities finally have the pro-urbanism voice in the White House they need! Right? NO EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE. How terrible? We ask Chicago urban policy ace Daniel Kay Hertz (@danielkayhertz) to explain how far the toilet we've flushed. Special thanks to recording engineer Tim Joyce.   

Why are your house, block, and city the way that they are? Daniel Kay Hertz has some ideas, and he's excited to share them with you. Hertz is an urban planner and Chicagoan who breaks down and reshapes housing and transportation policy in ways that illuminate how this city works, and often doesn't work. Get your crash course with the sexiest AirGo episode of all time. Recorded 8/25/16 in Chicago, IL Music from this week's show: #1 - @Lefty_Loosey
