The Reagan White House moved to lower tax rates for developers in the 1980s and then years of low interest rates glutted downtowns with office buildings. Time's up.
This town has three Krogers. The downtown Kroger was the shitty Kroger. Then they renovated it and we all realized it was all three Krogers that were shitty and now that one isn’t.
I’m still disappointed that they closed the Market Basket on Boston Road in Billerica. Now I have to go down to the Market Basket on Boston Road, or even all the way to the Market Basket on Boston Road!
I mean, by density it seems like there just would be less unless you are claiming a much higher drugs and crime per capita in the boonies. And you can drive by at 55mph and avoid it much more IME.
I don’t know where it love but downtown is probably some of the most sought after property and desirable locations in Toronto. So you statement is most definitely not applicable to “any city”.
No one wants to be downtown in any city. That’s where all of the trouble is, drug addicts, homeless, crime…
I avoid downtown at all costs in all of the cities near me.
There’s plenty of drugs and crime in the boonies, too
Yeah but there’s white picket fences and at least two Lowe’s, so you can say “hey let’s go to the good Lowe’s today.”

Ya, because I totally get stabbed by used needles and homeless people in the boonies…
Yeah but whenever they try to accost me on the side of the road I can just roll coal in their face and drive away
I love living downtown.
Good for you
