[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who thinks it’s a nifty idea to sacrifice 40 to 50 feet of the Janney school playground so that a private developer can build 7 or 8 more floors on top of the Tenley library for upmarket flats and a handful of “inclusive zoning” units? There are few clearer examples of privatizing public assets for private profit.[/quote] Since it is all city owned land, the affordability mix could be far greater and deeper than you posit.[/quote] 10 to 12 perecent 'inclusive zoning' units pegged at 80% ADI? That's not affordable housing. It's token window dressing for a windfall profit opportunity for a private developer, who gets to use public assets for private gain. But what does one expect in the kleptocratic "District of Colombia."[/quote]
