Micro-Districts are a solid idea. While the USSR had many problems, this was not one of them.

Keeping all of the trees while also building a 40,000 unit apartment building on the same lot is gonna be a bit of a trick. Unless the building is 30 stories high. That might be normal in New York, but that’s not something you’re gonna see very much outside of the city.

I’m all for vertical city building, but keep in mind what is likely to happen in your local community.

Lovely weather we're having in Minneapolis this weekend!
