How dense do we want it to be? Density becomes misery after a certain point. Manhattan isn't dense enough, we're showing, but do you enjoy taking a crowded train during rush hour? Have you ever been to a supermarket where the entire inside is one long line of people pulling items into their baskets as they go, ending up in another line where numbers are called to registers.
How about a big apartment building with 10 apartments on the floor, with at least one neighbor per weekend having a party, and half the people letting their doors slam whenever they come and go at night or early morning?
Folks, good news for you - one unit will be available soon, I'm happy to add a vacancy to this delightful city as I age out of it.
Density is not one size fits all. A walkable city guy my whole life, my mental health has taken a real beating. Density is for the young, that's the bottom line. Anyone who is a light sleeper or doesn't enjoy going out a lot at night is just taking one for the team.
