[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On what planet does it make sense to “densify” the residential side streets of neighborhoods like Forest Hills, AU Park, Chevy Chase DC, Spring Valley that we’re planned as leafy suburban streets with set-backs and pedestrian scale (or Cleveland Park, for that matter, which was both planned as a street car suburb and is a historic district on the National Register)? Is densification also planned for Georgetown?[/quote] On this planet, where we face global warming, due in large part to auto emissions created by long commutes - where it certainly makes sense to add more density in places served by transit, that are walkable and bikeable, and where even auto commutes are going to be short. And in this case where it can be done without creating gentrification, since these are not poor neighborhoods. [/quote] I'd prefer to just get rid of cattle farming. There are lots of places to tackle global warming before covering low density neighborhoods with concrete. --mostly vegetarian[/quote]
