Love these Bold City urban exploration vids & the music picks. Wonder what that water looked like pre-development?

Nice input. Good video

This was awesome, I’ve always wanted to try it.

That place is so loud number 6 to be exact but imagine if that place was 100k like neyland it would easlity be the loudest

Nice, very informational. Have you ever looked into investing into any commercial or multifamily properties?

Any chance you stumbled across any good spots to look for old bottles. I’m In Jacksonville also.

Should find Jax's Cheonggyecheon

The steepness of the stands makes it so loud.

Can city use them to decrease walking traffic on city's and to reduce traffic

Glad to see that your back! Great work

I'll be there in September for Utah vs Florida

Where did you park

BHG needs to host a WrestleMania

It’s a terrible hot uncomfortable no shade no breeze seats are terrible. Look to soccer stadiums in Europe needs shade structure and comfortable seats with drink holders and leg room

Can I get a hey from Leonard?

It's going to be for LA when we host it. We have most of the venues already. The major construction is for people living in LA anyway so even if the Olympics decides to quit we wouldn't lose that much, but we would gain the political advantage of pushing out infrastructure that needs to be built.

I can add to this with information about Sydney,Some of Sydney’s venues are still in use . Most of the venues have been remodeled to host local sports events and shows The main Olympic Park hosts Rugby,Cricket Australian Rules football concerts and an agricultural show each April. The Olympic village has been intergrated into the city and is now an area called Newington and is its own community

Athens venues still in use have you seen the state of them

This is a great analysis!. I love the Olympics, both from the sporting point-of-view and the urban planning and resource/infrastructure aspects. I would love to see you do a segment on the Winter Olympics, perhaps with a focus first on the 2030 Olympic bid cities - if they all stay with their potential interest, we have Salt Lake City, Sapporo, Barcelona, and Vancouver. All four have previously hosted Olympic Games (Barcelona hosted summer olympics), so how does their infrastructure compare, especially since the IOC is growing in their desire to use pre-existing facilities. Of course, I have a favorite, but I’d love to hear your analysis!

I wonder what kind of impact billions of dollars invested into infrastructure and sustainability efforts would bring to a city without hosting an Olympic event. With careful planning and a commitment to the future, I feel better gains could be made without the Olympics. Most cities that host this event already have international acclaim and really don't need to recognition. For the long-term, citizens would likely be better off without the games. The intangible is the social impact the games could have on it's residents and businesses through the effort of building then hosting the event. Great job on the details and examples.

Really good one Scott!!

Awesome video! Love the effort put into it.

Looks cool! Bet that water quality was garbage though

Nice video but you know that Creek is contaminated right

Cool beans

Needs a upgrade it looks old and outdated

Looks like a great project for Gainesville from both an environmental and community health point of view. I agree it looks like some additional shade would be helpful, especially over play equipment. BTW, what happened to all the contaminated soil that was removed?

A great video detailing the history of the Skyway: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmWqp3lthaaki5o

It seems like a better use of the infrastructure. Autonomous-shuttles in mixed traffic are being trialled all over the world but only a few are in revenue service. When do they plan to implement this?

I ❤️ outdoor restaurant seating

would love to see this in 5 points along park street, reroute the traffic and open up the main block to pedestrians only

Check out how Ben Hill Griffin Stadium hosted 75,000+ fans for Garth Brooks in 2019: www.garthbrooks.com/performances/gainsville-fl

Pollution of the urban creeks could be divided into three different buckets: legacy industrial (arsenic, ash, ect.) that would be really expensive to dig out, and might could just be left in sediments; current important (nutrients, animal waste, causing elevated e. coli levels; many of which can be treated by vegetation in a natural floodplain); and the trash you see, that makes people uncomfortable, but which is not much of a problem ecologically in the creeks (it may be a problem in the oceans, so intercepting the trash and landfilling it is nice.) None of those problems are likely to decrease biodiversity, although a treatment for number two, establishing meanders in a vegetated floodplain, does help with habitat and may increase biodiversity and/or native biomass. The McCoy's Creek Phase one does that, and is helpful. But Klutho's Hogan's Creek fancy ditch park was a bad floodplain plan. Hogan's Creek should be flooding into formerly Confederate, now Springfield park and all along Hogan's Creek. Meandering of Hogan's Creek, without concrete walls and fences (except where we just don't have any room to give to the floodplain) would be better for the environment, and reduce urban flooding.) Any of these urban floodplains will continue to get ugly with trash, but that a trashy, vegetated floodplain would be good for the environment.

UPDATED NOTES: - I mis-spoke several times. "Ultimate Urban Connector" should be "Ultimate Urban Circulator" and the "Jacksonville Regional Transit Center" should be "Jacksonville Regional Transportation Center" - downtown residents are also a significant part of the intended ridership, moving around the urban core without the need for a car - the $25 million grant was divided into two halves. $12.5 mil went towards the destruction of the Hart Bridge Expressway, and $12.5 is going towards the Bay Street Innovation Corridor project for JTA - JTA has clarified that the extensions will not be elevated track, they will be at-grade

Thank you for this overview. Informative and excellent visuals. I have been curious about U2C as a major capital improvement (and investment) for Jax. Will users be primarily residents who walk to the U2C stops or neighbors who drive in, park at designated lots/garages at the end of each spoke and “hop on?” It seems massive, so a future update could be summarizing funding sources. Again, thanks!

The project is advanced for Jacksonville but hopefully a better use of the infrastructure that is there now. I wish the best for having access to more than the current system with expansion to the areas just outside of the downtown core. Looking forward the evolution of the concept.

I learned so much from this video! I think it would be odd at first to see the vehicles around Jax but could be a really cool idea for the city.

Awesome vid. I was planning a trip there myself. Defiantly have to try it. Where did you launch? I will be doing it by kayak.

It would be nice to reference at least one mention of the Gullah/Geechee communities that make up that area.

Did you know them park areas was the original jacksonville zoo facebook.com/groups/194109102014802/permalink/340393417386369/

UPDATE: It has come to my attention that the funds earmarked for the Hogans Creek improvements are actually intended for the Emerald Trail improvements like the Model Project in Lavilla

Well done! Enjoyed the video!

Awesome video Scott.

I always wanted to paddle McCoy's creek.

Can't wait to kayak mccoy's creek after they finish cleaning it up and improve access

Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing...

Absolutely incredible! Thank you!

This was phenomenal footage! Thanks so much for doing this! I'm sure you ran into some creepy things!
