That was pretty slick. You should make the replies a bit more realistic and subtle so it doesn't sound like an ad, but super useful tool mate.

Check out what we’re doing at Culdesac. We build cities for people, not cars.

We’re building a 1000 resident car free neighborhood in Tempe, AZ. It is under construction now. Over 25 buildings are vertical and the first residents move in later this year.

Superblocks have much potential. And in general there is so much potential to build cities for people instead of cars.

Check out what we’re doing at Culdesac if you want to see how we’re approaching the opportunity. We’re building the first car-free neighborhood built from scratch in the US.

Phoenix doesn’t get much rain but it occurs in concentrated periods, so we have more experience with it than you might think.

In fact, part of why downtown Phoenix developed a few miles from the Salt River is because it had to avoid the seasonal flooding.

We have a plan for storm water management both during construction and long-term. We worked closely with the city on it.

tl;dr David Brooks is all about Arizona State University.

“Everything is on a mass scale. A.S.U.’s honors college alone is bigger than Stanford’s entire undergraduate enrollment. It graduates more Jews than Brandeis and more Muslims than Jews.”
