Just like densifying is going to make if cheaper for people to live in these finer neighborhoods, when a developer can buy a bungalow fore $ 700,000., subdivide the lot, and build two infills that sell for a million each.
Just like densifying is environmentally friendly, when many trees are removed, the green areas in the backyards disappear, and the air quality in the neighborhoods and the lower elevation area of the downtown area becomes worse.
