[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Increasing density is the same thing as gentrification. [/quote] Most gentrifying DC neighborhoods had gentrification BEFORE densification. When THs got to expensive in Dupont, whites (many of them gay) rehabbed THs in Logan Circle. When Logan Circle got expensive, they rehabbed houses in Shaw. The apartments followed. Banning the apartments would not stop or even slow the gentrification. People who claim density is the cause of gentrification in DC either have not lived here long, or are arguing in bad faith, for the most part. [/quote]
