Urban Spaceship Pillars

1. Street OS

Redesign the street as a civic platform
We treat streets as civic infrastructure: open, modular, and built for public life. Street OS focuses on friction-based design, social furniture, and right-size development. It champions playful, people-first environments that invite movement, gathering, and joy. This pillar also pushes to cut outdated regulations so communities can build directly on their blocks.

2. Neighborhood Capitalism

Create neighborhood-scale wealth without permission
This pillar reimagines capital, ownership, and value creation at the local level. From Neighborhood Investment Loops (NILs) and cooperative finance to micro-enterprise support and local capital stacks, we are building systems that let residents own more of where they live and work.

3. Urban Experiences

Design moments that move people and ideas
Our experiences spark connection, insight, and action. From quarterly networking events to the Urban Spaceship Summit and Roundabouts, our immersive urbanism retreats, we bring people to the source to learn, collaborate, and activate what’s next for cities.
