Nothing says affordable housing like a parking garage, pool, and rooftop deck.
Sounds like you are implying those people don’t deserve those amenities.
Yes, LS, that is exactly what I am saying. I know it’s. a shock to your Democrat system, but residents who can not pay market rate for housing don’t “deserve” (your word, not mine) rooftop decks and pools.
This is just a developer smart enough to grab funds while pretending to care about affordable housing. If you really cared, how many more units could you add if you got rid of the spa and pool?
The partisan comment was unnecessary. Exactly what is not needed in constructive criticism or commentary.
However, one does question the amount of parking given that the development is within the boundary of transit -oriented development defined for the Red Line. What is the justification for the 146 spaces; is this neighborhood impact or potential unit owner need?
Regarding a pool – an extremely high-maintenance item – I would agree that is excessive. Management and maintenance for a pool require fees. And this appears excessive for a below market rate building. If a more significant number of market rate units were included, perhaps a justification analysis would prove positive.
If market rate housing were made available in the neighborhood, say a redo of some properties or better utilization of one or more parcels for, say a two or three family duplex of comparable dimensions, it is highly unlikely a pool would be part of project.
The rooftop deck is not asking too much. Again, what exactly is the design — a simple deck for residents to get fresh air or sit or have a herb garden does not seem extravagant and need not be so.
