        Start at $2K/ year and increase until vehicle density decreases - Figs August 29, 2025, 15:54:29
        
        Go higher. The poors belong on busses.* - AceFrehley August 29, 2025, 15:56:36
        
        Well, the truly poor mostly can't afford a vehicle... so sure? - Figs August 29, 2025, 16:25:24

        no. but i think 2 and 3 are. i don't want multi units in my neighborhood. - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 13:41:05
        
        You have 2 and 3 story apartments a little over a block from you... - haighter August 25, 2025, 14:11:06

        But you chose to live near a transit hub? I guess it would be logical to expect - logansqillini August 25, 2025, 14:14:28
        
        no. it is not logical. i don't expect anything to change nor does it have to.* - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 15:06:02
        
        ooo. - logansqillini August 25, 2025, 15:20:05
        
        Well stomping my feet here does nothing. - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 15:22:35
        
        Does a new construction, multi unit building on your street fuck up your life - logansqillini August 25, 2025, 15:29:45

        No. I just want neighborhood to stay the same as it is. - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 16:39:28
        
        See my post above. You already live in a neighborhood full of apartment buildings. * - haighter August 25, 2025, 14:11:49
        
        There are some sprinkled around. and they are all on the main street - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 15:05:26

        Well…I know what’s not happening…and what’s not happening is a lot of what’s claimed in your OP. * - haighter August 26, 2025, 11:49:46
        
        eventually there will be 2 and 3 story multi units well within the neighborhood soon* - AceFrehley August 26, 2025, 12:06:33
        
        They already are unless you're restricting "my neighborhood" to "my block". * - haighter August 26, 2025, 16:11:39

        you're clueless. They aren't going to put in condos. - AceFrehley August 25, 2025, 15:08:18
        
        A percentage of those units will be "below market rate" not necessarily "Section 8"... - haighter August 25, 2025, 15:24:15
