[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Upzoning is stupid. It won't make any difference to housing prices because there's, ahem, six million people in the suburbs and they all want better commutes. [/quote] !!! They do NOT all want to be close in DC. By a long shot. A huge number of them WORK in the suburbs. In Bethesda. In Rosslyn. In Crystal City. At the Pentagon. In Old Town Alexandria. In West Alexandria. At Fort Belvoir. In Tysons (over 100,000 jobs there!) In Reston. Near Dulles. In Ashburn. In Suitland. In New Carrolton. Of the people who DO commute to DC, there are lots of people who just do not like DC for one reason or another, that would not be offset if housing prices were cheaper. And of course plenty who would move to DC for a detached SFH, but will never move into a 6 story condo building, or an ADU. [/quote]
