[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So called missing middle is a hypocritical and contradictory admission from urbanists that they don’t actually want density. If they did, they would stick with a giant high rise, but it turns out they don’t want that. They want SFHs. They can’t afford that though, so they are demanding in their minds the next best thing, because what they want (despite claims otherwise) is unobtainable. Then when they’re done destroying your neighborhood, turning it into a slum, they’ll leave because they were never committed to the community in the first place. Rinse, repeat.[/quote] If you want a real answer, they are arguing for a spine along the R-B corridor instead of bullseye development around the metro stops. And Plan Langston Blvd contemplates mid- to high-rises all along the highway. I’m not a “YIMBY” but MM isn’t their only initiative. More high-rises are coming.[/quote] Many of the high rises in Plan Langston Blvd are slated for people making 60%of the median income. If you haven't figured it out yet, Arlington progressives want to house as many low income people as possible and have higher income people pay for it. It is wealth re-distribution. One group has a plan to attract low income people to Arlington. The progressive Democrats in Arlington have been unleashed and are doing pretty much what they want. [/quote]
