'The zoned capacity of over 40 dwelling units / net acre is in line with the 20 – 75 dwelling units / net acre found in demonstrated models of great TOD around transit stations in similar neighborhoods'
i can't believe planners wrote this.
'The zoning originally approved by DPD would allow about 350 new units of housing in the area around the station above and beyond what the current zoning allows.'
would you live in a large family friendly cooperative, next to a park, with a variety of housing units (studios to 6-BR cluster apartments), with a car-free middle, playgrounds, massive balconies, and ample bike parking
it's interesting to me that in the US, we're adding new apartments at the ground level of existing buildings - because in such poor foresight, this area was space for cars.
whereas in DE/AT - they're adding new apartments above the existing roof level, even in newer buildings.
