[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Solution: More apartments in North Arlington. More single family housing in South Arlington.[/quote]

Cool, go find me a site in the Discovery zone where you could put an apartment building.[/quote]

Restrictive zoning is a primary way to hoard opportunity. Just rezone.[/quote]

Rezone what? Where is there a sufficiently large vacant parcel(s) in the Discovery zone that would be an attractive site to a developer for an apartment building?[/quote]

Take a look at the various development in South Arlington - you don't need a "sufficiently large vacant parcel" to build large housing projects.[/quote]

So find a site, no one is stopping you from identifying one.[/quote]

Actually, the residents in north arlington stop it all the time.  When projects are built in the north, they are typically much fewer units.  So when it isn't stopped, it's limited.[/quote]

Where has this happened in the Discovery zone? Or anywhere else in NW in recent history (defined as the period when parents of current APS students might reasonably have been homeowners there)? Please identify specific projects where residents blocked increased density in a development.[/quote]
