[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is wrong with SFH neighborhoods that don’t burden schools and roads? They are a necessary counter to density, especially with the City’s massive infrastructure issues. [/quote] Why are they a necessary counter to density?[/quote] 1. The same reason Giant sells 45 different flavors of Ice Cream. People like different things. 2. All these 'terrible' lawns we have provide green space, wildlife and plant habitat, and rain water filtration. Would you rather be in Roslyn or Charles Hill Park on a 95F day? DP, btw.[/quote] Are those 45 flavors of Ice Cream [u]necessary[/u], though? Which is better for the environment, a dense urban area surrounded by green space, or suburban sprawl that extends to the horizon and beyond?[/quote] Is it really NECESSARY to have multiple housing types in SFH areas when there are plenty of areas already zoned for multifamily or mixed use? [/quote]
