I have a concern, let me know if I am completely off my rocker here.

Are we spreading ourselves to thin with all of these new "villages"?

East Village, West Village, TOD's. We are still only a city of just over a million people, can we really support all of these giant neighbourhoods?

I'd rather see the focus on the East Village first, and let that develop and strengthen the Beltline as a result. Once we have achieved critical mass move onto the next area. Because if all of these projects go ahead simultaneously I don't think we will achieve the desired vision for all these neighbourhoods. Now dump an extra 500,000 people into our population right now and I think my concern would be less.

Thoughts?
