In my ideal world, the mall housing would be aimed at old people and anyone with handicaps such that they're taking a greater-than-normal risk navigating icy sidewalks or bad weather in general. Imagine being able to walk to and from shopping, gyms, and third spaces without worrying about falling and breaking a hip. That is the idea which ought to sell this.
- kiba 6y ago"OK, on your form you said you're sixty, but you're forty". Seriously, I hate unnecessary bureaucracy. Ideally, we'll build enough housing for everyone, regardless if they have a handicap or not, or old for that matter. Our society is very wealthy, we can do this. Done right, it won't be a burden for everyone, because we'll get lower cost of living and as a side effect, healthier humans.
- bryanlarsen 6y agoThat's quite a jump. The OP said "aimed at" which in my mind just means the picture on the front cover of the brochure has a pair of smiling seniors.
- onlyrealcuzzo 6y agoOn the contrary, I just met an 81-year old guy that still runs through Griffith Park, 2+ miles every day. In my ideal world, less old people would be decrepit. At least, I am hoping that I will be anywhere near that agile at 81.
