I’m speechless. It’s literally porn as far as I’m concerned. I will definitely be visiting that site regularly, and kudos to the guy who runs it.

Agreed about Curbed. I think Curbed had some good people but ultimately failed from the top. They chose a really lousy editor, she didn’t seem interested whatsoever in real estate
It became just another Chicago culture site once she came on board. Too many posts about the weather, things to do, how to survive winter, etc.

I'm sure readership dropped, there are better places to get that kind of content if its what you're after.

I sort of wrote YIMBY off once they came onto the scene back in May (or around then) and wrote an article without fact checking, and didn't take it down or update it even after the architect/developer reached out to them and said it was false. I figured it was some hobbyist blogger without any interest in actual reporting. Maybe I was wrong?
