But don’t you see?

In the mind of a NIMBY, once they purchase property, only then does the town magically become frozen in time, and should never have to ever change.

Imagine if the “neighborhood character” of forests and corn fields had been preserved. Most NIMBY suburbs wouldn’t exist.

Last summer I was driving thought Charlestown and watched a guy consoling his girlfriend who was screaming and crying watching a triple decker being demolished. She screamed "THIS IS SO FUCKED UP I GREW UP HERE!!! THAT BUILDING WAS ALWAYS THERE! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

There is a new triple decker there now that looks almost exactly the same lmao
