I never said that streets etc should alwas be able to handle the increased traffic no matter where it is.As for building condos in people's back yards lets not get carried away no condo or office building is beeing built in anyones back yard you don't own every single of space meaning if there is land for sale acrosse the street you don't own that land. there.Back to my area if a developer came along and said we want to build 4 condos at 30 floors each as long as there are good enough roads i will have no issues with that even if it was right behind my house.If we have this mind set we should have no tall building what will happen is urban sprawl would be far far worse aslo in the core sure you would not have 30 floor buildings but you would have 6-10 buildings in areas now how is that better then one building.
