[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve yet to me anyone who describes themselves as YIMBY that actually owns and will actually be affected by the project in question.

In Berkeley, they’re all for anti-SFH...well except where all the politicians live. That needs to be a historic district. Your neighborhood though should double the density and triple the occupancy.

I live a few doors off Connecticut Avenue. I would be deeply impacted by new development offered by the changes in zoning in the DC Comprehensive Plan. I support the changes, welcome potential new neighbors and look forward to improved retail in my area. There are a lot of us, and we are younger than our [b]blue haired neighbors[/b] who are pearl clutching over any changes in Upper NW DC.[/quote]
You are very disrespectful of the other people who live in your community. Lot a good look and pretty gross frankly.[/quote]

My neighbors are being disrespectful of the future the rest of us want, rather than the past they are trying to hold on to.[/quote]
I am pretty sure that your elderly neighbors who have lived there for decades are not calling you names. Seriously, get some perspective.

It sounds to me like you have invented in your head the idea that your neighbors are evil enemies and that you are trying to get revenge against them through zoning.

Totally normal behavior.[/quote]
