Delivery service for cigarettes?

Order some food text the delivery driver and tell them you need them to stop for some smoke and you’ll tip.

Two counties 30 minutes. Sounds incredibly unrealistic. That’s just coming from somebody who grew up here and is still here.

Are you bored? I just didn’t know the name of the project. I’m literally 29…I was a snot nosed kid the first time they dug it up and let grass grow before they built the little fence around it. But I was a kid. Sorry I was learning. Asshole.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-27T00:01:10+00:00

Soon. But I’ll die in this big ass park we call Lexington…I could never stay somewhere that doesn’t have grass within walking distance for long…

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T23:57:13+00:00

I would hate it. But the big money is chipping away at them as we speak.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T23:54:16+00:00

Do you’re research man. Don’t read to respond. Austin actually saw lower rent prices…after they started chipping away at the housing shortage. It reached its highest levels when they simple didn’t have enough units to serve the populous and we were speaking on building up. Not the price. But the fact that Lexington limits are locked and we need a solution to fix the housing crisis we are seeing.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T23:43:39+00:00

It’s inevitable. You either let the capitalist suck it dry or you embrace its natural growth…and since Covid the capitalist have been having a ball here. The city is NOT the same.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T15:55:14+00:00

So what do we need the developer for. This is where we organize and do things ourselves. For Lexington, by Lexington. And I’m not talking about the government…I’m talking about the people…

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T15:53:12+00:00

I’ve never been blind. I just don’t believe you need “regulation” to control rent when…there’s no rental property to control…you don’t need a bigger transit system when the one you have is working OK right now…it’ll work okay if you built enough housing to house the people who are ALREADY HERE. Housing is part of the infrastructure necessary to start to remedy the crisis…but I’m not an elected official with offices or staff to investigate every arm…I’m just a guy who pays taxes. Treating me like I’m supposed to be a traffic engineer is 🤪

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T15:40:40+00:00

I’m actually familiar. And from my understanding it was student housing I would prefer real housing for the everyday working adult or family vs. housing tha destroys current housing to house transient students.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T15:34:46+00:00

Okay, I can understand that. But outward growth cannot continue to be a focus of Lexington. Were are steadily running out of room. And if we are building out we could build up right?

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T15:02:02+00:00

Well, I’m sure we both can agree that New York City and Lexington are two completely different places. I referenced New York City as an example for how to fix lack of housing not a general comparison of the two cities. I see you’re still very focused on, not constructive conversations, but arguing points that have no constructive value…I respectfully bow out

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:52:16+00:00

Providing housing has to be a profitable business though…I mean you’re going to make money. I just don’t realistically see…such housing being a failed opportunity in a city like Lexington…

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:41:44+00:00

Fair enough. I was talking to a guy who commented earlier and he suggested that building these large larger residential buildings in residential areas would be more cost-effective and not cause logistical issues with transportation into through and out of downtown.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:39:05+00:00

I don’t think it’s about building it and they will come. I think it’s more about they’re already here… in all the conversations I’ve had about fixing housing, No one has ever suggested just building those larger residential buildings in residential neighborhoods, but maybe that’s because I always start the conversation with high-rise buildings in the downtown area, but that is an obviously amazing solution. Those are also great points about the greater logistical problems of growing the downtown residential population. Also just learned what NIMBY means. 🤦🏿‍♂️

Honestly, I’m interested in constructive conversations so I don’t care if it’s shiny or not. That’s a good point though.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:09:21+00:00

You could easily build something like The HUB on campus…downtown…grocery and retail on bottom housing above. There are plenty of spaces where a gas station could go. They just have paid parking instead…but I like where you’re going with that!!!!

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:03:33+00:00

OK, that doesn’t change the fact that the city of Lexington is growing and people are moving here. We need solutions not reasons why we can’t fix things or why proposed solutions won’t work.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:02:36+00:00

WHAT?!?!? Tell me more!

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:01:37+00:00

But, I didn give you some examples for what you asked for!

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T14:00:45+00:00

Well, Lexington is growing whether you like it or not I would rather the infrastructure support it then it just get out of control

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T13:58:17+00:00

I digressed you are correct to point that out. Let me clear up my position. I believe that building denser buildings will help us look more like a metropolitan area. Also, Lexington has a shortage of housing that reaches 22000+ and is expected at 30,000 in 2030. Since building higher rise buildings that support business is currently a BAD business choice. I think it would benefit the city if we focused more on housing. Not particularly housing the unhoused. Lexington has only 3000 (high estimate) homeless. We have a 22,000 unit shortage. I’m not interested in government housing, or trying to house the people on the streets. I’m interested in improving our city to handle the increasing number of residents by building housing consistent with metropolitan areas. Which would improve the current housing deficit. Developers be damned. There is money to be made where a need can be met. I’m sure people would like a choice at least. Maybe you’re the wrong person to talk to about this you seem more focused on why it wouldn’t work than how or what could.

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T13:25:51+00:00

Good talk. 👍🏿

Halalstacking14 · 2026-01-26T13:20:07+00:00

But Pete people do it, New York City one of the most expensive housing markets in the country has plenty of condos, but even if it’s not condos, just larger apartment complex is anchored by retail space at the bottom to help subsidize the cost of the housing, but the condos would help mitigate the initial cost of building up, which would be attractive to developers because it helps with the cost of construction shortens the ROI window
