Have you tried "building good public transportation, walkable and bikeable neighborhoods"?
- s1artibartfast 2mo agoBuyers aren't willing to pay for it. Its not really up to the developers anyways. [Edit] I am serious. Homebuyers dont want to pay US construction prices for a 500sqft walkable Parisin style apartment. Nor do they want a xx billion dollar metro cost tacked onto their property tax.
- eagleinparadise 2mo agoI can't tell if this person is joking or actual serious. It's sad, because this is exactly the kind of ridiculousness developers experience day to day by the general public. No, a private citizen does not have the ability to demolish entire neighborhoods to create a new New York City with a beautiful Central Park. Maybe if they own a home, maybe they'd donate their home to some developer to make a community garden. You and I know, that many people would love to do such a thing. But, 99% of people, would reject doing this or demand an infeasible amount of money for this.
