[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I drive the New York Ave corridor regularly, and there is still substantial vacant land along the avenue for new housing development at scale. But presumably developers aren't interested in that area?[/quote] They are, development has already begun - obviously the Hechts warehouse. More will come, despite relatively poor transit access on portions of the corridor. But you need to look down the road so to speak - if that area is built out in, say, 2030, then the by building things in the 2020s to the old height limit, an opportunity is lost. Put another way, once there are no more parcels to build on, what will be the point of changing the height limit?[/quote]
