I didn't say anything about bulldoze.

I see all the time in JC where they take an old building down, leave its facade, and build a much taller building using the same front of the old building.

We need lower housing prices, and for that we need more housing.

Hey, I agree on the need for more housing!

There has already been some adaptive re-use of old buildings in that neighborhood to add density, and I’d love to see more of that.

The new developments north & west of HP seem to be more car-oriented than transit-oriented (close to 1 parking spot for each unit). I’m not keen on having all those additional cars & car-dependent people in the mix in JC. I’d rather keep seeing more development in places that people will walk to transit.
