Interesting read. This article could prompt productive discussion. Imo
All this fear about future traffic and not one peep of expanding train service to cherry creek highlight the unseriousness of NIMYs
If there is such a thing as Developer NIMBYs, these folks quoted in the article are it. Seriously, they developed many buildings in CC which led to the very issues they are complaining about. However, now that they got theirs and made their millions, the next project development is suddenly "too much", "too big", "too much traffic", "out of character", etc.,.. Such a self serving sentiment.

That was a very frustrating article.
