Thanks for those posts. I agree with those points as they are extremely valid, articulate, and irrefutable. We definitely should plan the future with an awareness of technological innovation and the likely progression of population and environmental changes. The "fuel" that runs New York hasn't changed since the area was first settled in. I think that some people protest against the same progression and risk that has defined New York for them, or in other words, are protesting (NIMBYism) for an idea that couldn't have existed without the progression and risk involved with being aware of the future (Example: Empire State Building). Quite ironic, really.
