[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MM is a solution looking for a problem.

Building 6-plex apartments on single family lots isn't the solution.  Arlington has plenty of apartments.  What everyone wants is a single family home in Arlington but just can't afford it.  So, sorry, but that's the way the free market works. [/quote]

This is $820k. Are the proposed duplexes and THs really going to be priced lower than that?[/quote]

Maybe they will, maybe they won't, but at minimum, there will be more of them. And we know the relationship between supply, demand, and price. That's the way the free market works, right?[/quote]

Yes, we do. More supply invites more demand.[/quote]

NIMBY logic at its finest.

I don't know how you can spout this nonsense with a straight face. Just take the mask off, embrace it. "I don't want to build anything because I got mine and screw everyone else."[/quote]
