Bicycled to the office with the non-ebike. As I walked in, our front desk person, in all seriousness, asked me if it was raining outside already

I've come to understand the voters got what they wanted here. Our street is full of porta potties too, but here's the crap they turn into because of our amber.

Quite right. However, even with devastating fires like that the bones of street grid, plats, and underground infrastructure remain.
