[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington gives a lot of lip service to sharing and all being welcome, etc.  Money where mouth is, zip codes.[/quote]

This.

I actually find the people posting thing like go away we don’t want you here are much worse and definitely the problem. In real life they say the same thing over and over to affordable housing in their area. So I can’t take anything they say seriously. How about this? Instead of the next tear down monstrous rebuild in their neighborhood, we tear down and build a small multi family building. then we move in low income families.  How many seconds would it take for the objections to roll in [/quote]

Yes, that would help.  I would reimagine the whole Madison rec center area, to take just one example, as a possible site for low income housing.[/quote]

But there's not public transit infrastructure there. And it wouldn't fit enough housing to make building it there worthwhile. [/quote]

Buses can be easily added.

And even if not practical, I would feel better that the North Arlington gets its fair share of affordable housing.[/quote]
