[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the Boston area. Many of the surrounding/close-in cities with lax zoning are truly hideous—small lots, no green space or trees, covered by structures (quads, triples, duplexes), small driveways… No thanks ![/quote] I live in Lyon Village and the new SFHs have created small lots, no green space or trees (just enough yard for an It's Not Affordable and a Protect the Tree Canopy sign), impermeable hardscaping -- No thanks. Put at least two families in them or GTFO [/quote] Some of those large homes you complain about actually do house more than one family - multi-generations and/or siblings and their families. All MM will do is create the same large (or even larger) structure that you loathe, while shrinking your street surface with more cars, more trash and recycling bins.[/quote] Builders already build to the max. MM won’t change that. [/quote] People keep saying this, but I don't think it's true. We built a house and could have built a larger structure based on the size of the lot. I think MM will be bigger than most new construction is now. It will absolutely always be max size. My guess is what's build now is 85-90% of max size.[/quote] I wish you guys lived in my neighborhood of non-conforming 5000 square feet lots. People are definitely building to the max here.[/quote]
