This would just become a 100 apartment buildings.
Exactly. People who advocate for densification are basically advocating for everywhere to be Amsterdam or NYC with continuous human habitation and maybe small concessions in the form of city parks (a joke compared to real natural areas, IMO).
I'm not sure if they're aware that this will be the logical conclusion of those policies.
I'd rather have a few cities and a lot of unspoilt nature than no cities and no nature, just suburban sprawl everywhere
How about nice green suburbs with single family homes and a lot fewer people?
Well if that much housing is needed then the idea of not providing it is kind of.. monstrous? evil?
Nah mate, there should be laws to how much people can live in some area. It's inhumane to compress so many people in one place. I don't want every city to be Hong Kong.
well i'm certainly glad you have no legislative power because you sound pretty selfish.
