This Week’s Tweak — Databases

In an effort to continually improve and expand the offerings on The Gondola Project, each week we’re rolling out a “tweak” to the site. If there’s a part of the website you’d like to see “tweaked” send us an email at gondola (at) creativeurbanprojects (dot) com.

This week we’ve begun a major update of our “database” pages. Basically these are the pages in the Learn About Cable Transit category in which we have organized many of our past posts. Since we post everyday the information piles up quickly. This week we’ve updated the “Systems We’re Following” page. This is the page where we follow cable systems that are going through the proposal, planning, and construction phases.

You may notice that several of the featured systems on this page have been completed and are now operational. We noticed this, too. But that is another tweak for another week.

This Week’s Tweak — The Counter!

Remember when after we hit 1000 days this would happen:

Well, not any more. (Count it!)

This Week’s Tweak — Learn the Basics page

In an effort to continually improve and expand the offerings on The Gondola Project, each week we’re rolling out a “tweak” to the site. If there’s a part of the website you’d like to see “tweaked” send us an email at gondola (at) creativeurbanprojects (dot) com.

This week we updated the Learn the Basics page so that it is spiffier then ever and easier to follow. (So, while the specific “Learn About Cable” pages may not all be up yet, the index for them now is!)

You can check out the Learn the Basics page here, or from the header menu under Learn About Cable Transit.

The Gondola Project In Your City

One thing we’ve noticed over the last year or so is that city-specific content rules.

It’s all fine and well for us to talk generally about urban gondolas and cable-propelled transit, but it’s not until ideas specific to a given city are put forward that people really start paying attention.

That doesn’t apply simply to this site either. Once concepts and ideas are put forward for a city in specific, conversation is spurred by virtue of the fact that locals know their city better than anyone else.

So here’s an idea we’ve been toying with and want Gondola Project readers to voice their opinions on:

What if we created city-specific Gondola Project pages? Places where, for example, our Toronto gondola system could be analyzed, changed, debated and promoted. Or Brian’s Pittsburgh concept. Or Ryan’s Palmerston North proposal.

We could even produce city-specific pages to follow actual projects, such as the St. Louis gondola, Burnaby Mountain proposal in Vancouver, or even the London Cable Car (gondola).

What do people think? Is this a worthwhile endeavor?

Feel free to post your thoughts in the comments section (and be as harsh and honest as possible) and/or send us an email at gondola (at) creativeurbanprojects (dot) com.
