[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Give rich people what they want, and there will be dregs for average people! In the far suburbs! Awesome. [/quote] The rich people in Ward 3, and similar places, want to stop development. Send the lesser folks somewhere else, as far away as possible. [/quote] It's the density people who want to push out poor people to make way for their million-dollar condos. [/quote] [b]No, I am a density person in Ward 3, and what I want is (a) new buildings with affordable housing in them to replace empty lots, (b) zoning that allows for apartment buildings and other multi-family housing throughout the ward instead of just big single-family homes, and (c) taller buildings in general to allow for more housing in the area. I want more poor people to be able to move TO the neighborhood[/b].[/quote] None of this stuff will actually result in lower housing prices. That's the whole point of this thread. [/quote]
