You make good points about the costs and the benefit, but I just want to say one thing in response: I DGAF about changing "neighborhood character." I know that it might sound hypocritical to want this for someone else's neighborhood, but I can put myself in these other people's shoes: If someone proposed a subway station in my quiet residential neighborhood, I absolutely would go to the public meetings to speak out in favor of it, and every single resulting upzoning. If your land is valuable to a developer and you don't like the new "neighborhood character," sell your house and enjoy the profit. |
