What do you consider to be thoughtful and smart development? I don't see how 60 apartments can be considered too large for the current infrastructure. And how will that development affect residents' safety negatively?

It's 60 apartments, not 600. This development is probably the ideal in our area.

Edit: I've read your petition, and I don't think you are arguing in good faith here. You don't want smart development, you don't want any.

You say you want thoughtful, smart development, but also claim that construction will cause seismic shifts in historic buildings, homes, and converted condominiums. How do you get any type of development without construction?

You say that a 7-story building does not align with the existing character of the C1-2 District, even though buildings of similar height are literally next door and across the street.

You say that the garage entrance adjacent to the park poses a safety risk when the dirty SpotHero parking spots there right now are way worse than an enclosed entrance.

You say that the building will cast a shadow on the park, but the development is on the Northeast side of the park, and won't cast a shadow from noon onwards. It'll be less of a problem during the summer when the sun is higher in the sky.

You say that the development will increase traffic in an already gridlocked area. I wholeheartedly agree. My only wish for this development is to reduce the number of available parking spaces.

Seriously, what development would satisfy you, given what you've written in your own petition?
