[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not after COVID crisis. Anyway, more development means more affordable housing and more tax revenue for better transit, public schools, social services for marginalized people, etc., plus great urbanism. In other words, win-win-win for DC. [/quote] This is the pseudoscience behind the urbanization movement. There simply is not a study that bears any of your assumptions out. The fact of the matter is, before adding a ton of additional variables, if your theory was correct, we should be able to get the services that we have working. If we cannot get WMATA to work for the city now, how do we drop an additional 100K people in it (with no cars because urbanization is also anti vehicles) without functioning WMATA. [/quote] +100 WMATA keeps raising prices, but we're getting zilch for it. It doesn't work for the city; it works to enrich itself, full stop.[/quote]
