[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s true. Our planners have lost the ability to plan communities with diverse living options. All these new condos look alike and the Wisconsin Ave plan is virtually identical to the Connecticut Avenue plan. No thought. No creativity. No imagination.[/quote] If you stripped away single family zoning, there could be all sort of imagination around different size and shape buildings that could house one, two or many families. But when the zoning s either single family OR medium to high density, then you get single family home or multifamily buildings. If you want the "gentle density" that you seem to be pushing for, then that is a different discussion. But you aren't going to get low density on a high impact transportation corridor.[/quote] I’m pretty sure that you don’t need to eliminate SFH zoning in order to get the desired mix of density, that’s just lazy planning.[/quote]
