New buildings are more energy efficient, effectively have lower emissions, withstand fire and other natural disasters better, etc etc. Come on, ostensible progress studies advocates!https://twitter.com/JakeAnbinder/status/1446156868452237315 …
agree new buildings are better across these dimensions, but if YIMBYs want to win they need to actually respond to aesthetic complaints, and evolve, rather than ignore or demean what are fairly ubiquitous complaints. imo we can just build prettier shit.
