I felt my statement was pretty objective, being a big supporter of the ring road and of this bridge among.
I'm in the opposite situation of you, I was in the suburbs, but made the decision to live closer to work (I find driving to take transit not a satisfactory solution and a 45 minute commute time not appealing) and somewhere with a bunch of shops/restaurants within walking distance.
Granted if I was a guy with a young family I'm sure I'd love the fact I could get way more space for my money and not have to worry about hobos spray painting my children if I was living further out in the city.
Different things are better for different people. I just don't happen to be so selfish that because I won't use a particular bridge/overpass/LRT line that I think it shouldn't be built, which is the attitude of many in here.
Good for you that you don't go downtown. Over 200,000 people do 5 days a week minimum.
