  • There’s new transit coming, more affordable housing, and more people, yay!
  • People of color are being priced out; service industry people are being priced out.
  • Noise/construction ruining views. More soundproof insulation, gardens, rooftop with trees anything to prevent further unhelpful development/construction, as much nature as possible.
  • More traffic, making streets more unfriendly for pedestrians. Create plenty of pedestrian-oriented space, spaces for casual gathering, bumping into one another, and social interaction. Places for kids to play! Make the whole design kid- and family friendly!
  • Increased transit options and foot traffic in the neighborhood are both great. New housing developments should be aligned with pedestrian walking patterns and have adequate bike and alternative transportation infrastructure (bike storage, scooter charging stations, etc.)
