A Word on Urban Redevelopment

2 Sep

It’s not a social good in and of itself.

I also wonder if folks who are all development uber alles still concern themselves with things like “sustainability,” which seems to be a watchword among the gentrifying classes.

The knee-jerk reaction to build things like music venues in blighted areas is tantamount to “drill, baby, drill.” Do you really want to be associated with that?
