You know, I was all for shouting NIMBY but now that I took a quick look and read what they are suggesting, it doesn't make much sense. They are a few small lots that they want to build a house with 2 suites on each one. Wouldn't it make more sense, as one of the residents suggested, to sell the lots to the people who want to buy them, and use the space directly on 16th (or 17th) where they could build one larger complex that would be far more efficient and denser as affordable housing?
The purpose of affordable housing in this context is to integrate small units in a large community.
