I’d much prefer a few large dense housing complexes, surrounded by green space, than suburban sprawl.
minus-squareSeekPie@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up31arrow-down2·edit-22 months agoI’d also prefer something denser than suburban sprawl, but I think there’s a balance point between that and what the post is showing. I think that 3-5 story apartments with shops underneath are the best ones, because they aren’t too dense while also not wasting space.
