As a Santa Cruz homeowner who has lived in other dense and sparse places, I love this. I can't wait for this to happen and wish I could do more to make it happen more quickly. With the introduction of the rail trail, Santa Cruz has the potential to become one of the most livable places in the United States I think San Francisco is an easy lesson in the politics of building - You get to choose density or destitution, and you don't get to opt out. I lived in SF for 10 years and Boston for 5. SF is a worse place for the time, and Boston has only gotten better. I'm a firm believer that development is the reason.
