The new apartment building on the corner of Mass and Columbus is a good example of how you can maintain neighborhood character while building new housing. There are multiple brick low income housing buildings throughout the south end many 6 or so stories tall.

I don’t think glass towers belong, but that’s just aesthetic preference.

People like to act as though giant 50 story glass and concrete monstrosities that destroy quality of life are the only way to build housing despite living in a city, full of examples of beautiful, dense housing.

It blows my mind how much people seem to think the only options for housing are single family homes or Kowloon city.
