“It would be really transformative. Over the coming decade or so we could have millions of new homes with access to transit.”

The measure would allow housing developments of four to eight stories within a half mile radius of every BART station, Caltrain stop or other rail hub, and a quarter mile from bus stops with frequent service. The limit would be higher for main streets and developments near bus stops or immediately surrounding the rail stations.

The one who first in the neighborhood sells his shack to the developer planning to build a 6-story shitbox on the lot - wins the jackpot.

That is what we need. Not allowing homes to be built is a crime.

Ready for 6-story apartment complex (with 20% "affordable units") on the neighboring lot overlooking your backyard?

If you want a large garden with privacy you can always leave the metropolis and go live in the country side.

You can’t keep entire cities, and millions of people, hostage of your little backyard.

Sure: gimme my well-deserved $3M for my shack and I'll be gone in 30 seconds. Until that - NIMBY, motherfuckers.

BTW, why should I move? Why don't the fuckers who want to live on top of each other move to already-existing shitholes like the one pictured below? What's with the desire for shitholezation of every nice area?

You can shithole it the dense way or the retirement community way. Most interesting metropolis in the world went the dense way:

Once there is enough people on the other side of you, you won't get a say in the matter.
