Podcast appearances and mentions of nico larco

It’s been five years since the pandemic shut down cities and towns across the country and changed the daily lives and routines of many people. From virtual workplaces to outdoor dining, COVID-19 also changed how we use and see our cities. Nico Larco is a professor of architect and urban design and is the director of the Urbanism Next Center at the University of Oregon. He joins us to share what has and hasn’t changed in our cities since lockdowns began. 

Tune in for a panel discussion showcasing Seattle Department of Transportation's Autonomous Vehicle Inclusive Planning Cohort (AVIPC). Learn more about the AVIPC, their community-driven approach to autonomous vehicle deployments, and the work they're doing to improve safety, accessibility, affordability, and more. Hear from Armand Shahbazian of Seattle Department of Transportation, Charlotte Jernick of Uncommon Bridges, and Nico Larco of the University of Oregon. 

Planners have a difficult job. In addition to being experts on their own technical field of planning, they must also understand a variety of other disciplines — like architecture, landscape and ecology to name just a few. These fields are complex in their own right, and planners must consider and translate these concepts for laypeople and elected officials alike. Nico Larco experienced this information overload firsthand and decided to build a resource to compile and contextualize the essential elements of sustainable design. The result was The Sustainable Urban Design Handbook, which he co-authored with Kaarin Knudson.

This week on the Talking Headways podcast swe're joined by Nico Larco, Director of the Urbanism Next Center at the University of Oregon. We chat about his new book with Kaarin Knudson, The Sustainable Urban Design Handbook as well as a realization about how most of what we do in the United States seems to be bandaids for a lack of urban density. *** Follow us on twitter @theoverheadwire Follow us on Mastadon theoverheadwire@sfba.social Follow us on Threads or Instagram @theoverheadwire Support the show on Patreon http://patreon.com/theoverheadwire Buy books on our Bookshop.org Affiliate site!  And get our Cars are Cholesterol shirt at Tee-Public!

Some U.S. cities are contending with the rollout of self-driving cars and other autonomous vehicles on their roads. Others are still considering how to approach AVs and whether they’re a good fit for the community. A new guide from the University of Oregon’s Urbanism Next Center aims to help leaders navigate these challenges.  Nico Larco is a professor of architecture and urban design at UO and the director of the center. He joins us with more details on what cities should be thinking about as autonomous vehicles continue to roll out.

Urban designer Nico Larco explores how autonomous cars have the potential to revolutionize how we drive and even live. This talk was filmed at TEDxCollegePark. All TEDx events are organized independently by volunteers in the spirit of TED's mission of ideas worth spreading.

Professor Nico Larco comes on to explain both the positive and negative implications for cities in adopting autonomous vehicles, how covid may have changed things with regard to this technology, and how individuals will be affected by this powerful technology. The post How will Autonomous Vehicles Impact Cities of the Future? (With Nico Larco) Ep #79. appeared first on .

The Urbanism Next Center at the University of Oregon studies how cities are affected by disruption. Director Nico Larco says the consequences of the COVID-19 disruption may range from the continued increase in e-commerce and loss of small businesses, to the shrinking or re-purposing of office space, to the use of streets as restaurants. We’re joined by Nico Larco and Amanda Howell with the Urbanism Next Center to talk about all these changes and more.

"Vertical MaaS platforms like Uber, Lyft and Waymo, create monopolies in cities". In this podcast Professor Nico Larco (Univ of Oregon/TNO) shares his views on MaaS from the private as the public perspective.

This week we're at Urbanism Next, a conference hosted by the University of Oregon that aspires to break the mold of transportation conferences, which are often filled with people from industry, the public sector, or academia - but rarely all three. We sat down with the event's co-organizers, Nico Larco and Becky Steckler from the University of Oregon, ahead of the conference to get a sneak peek into what will be discussed across the next few days. Keep up with Urbanism Next on Twitter throughout the week with #UrbNext2018 and follow @UrbanismNext and @NicoLarco on Twitter. Stay tuned for our interviews with leaders in the field across the next few days!

Our guest is Nico Larco from the University of Oregon, and we discuss the secondary impacts of autonomous vehicles on cities, including potential effects on parking, transit, street design, land use, urban planning, sprawl and real estate valuation. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/smarter-cars/support

When we adopt new and innovative approaches to mobility, Nico Larco says we should pull back the curtain first. As the Co-Director of the Sustainable Cities Initiative at the University of Oregon, Larco helps public and private entities understand the potential impacts of autonomous vehicles, electric vehicles, and ecommerce on cities. In this wide-ranging discussion, Larco describes how he evaluates these technologies as transportation issues in order to understand their secondary impacts on health, livability, and housing. Join us at Larco's upcoming conference, Urbanism Next, from March 5-7 in Portland. You can register at urbanismnext.com Twitter: @nicolarco @urbanismnext

How cities will be adjusting to automated vehicles and e-commerce. Dr. Ben Clark & Dr. Nico Larco from the University of Oregon join the podcast to discuss the impact of driverless cars and online shopping. Local governments will be adjusting through their tax and revenue policies, land use and more. These changes are already here, many brick and mortar retail stores are closing and Uber and Lyft are impacting how the public uses streets and parking.

This week we’re chatting with Nico Larco, an Associate Professor of Architecture at the University of Oregon and  Co-Director of the Sustainable Cities Initiative.  We talk about the secondary effects of autonomous vehicles and e-commerce such as street design, parking, and land values.  We also talk about terrestrial drones, zombie cars, delivery bee hives, and the fact that cities just aren’t ready yet for an autonomous future.
