For example, there’s not a lot of wide boulevards or wide Planting strips, less shared spaces. In shared spaces one person can’t choose to cut down trees whereas those who live on a single little lot choose to get rid of all their large trees. #upzone #TreeCanopy

1. #Upzone one of the city's key commercial corridors.
2. Ten new businesses have opened! #GrandAve #SaintPaul
I think the citywide upzoning proposal would win more people over if:
1. It was illegal to short term rent if a row house is built, and
2. Any basement suite or backyard cottage had to be rented at non-market rates.

Okay, here’s the last one on the tour. Row house set 7.
And I forgot to swing by this one… opps! You’ll just have to go see it yourself! 😂
This one is bigger than the others, but it looks great. Here’s the Google street view.

Here is row house set 4. This one is different with attached garages underneath. I guess that allows 5 units to be built. Make the home taller but it still seems fine. Great to have a bus stop so close plus there is a bike lane.👍

Here’s rowhouse set 2. It seems fine.
Corner lot, and lots of street parking.
Let’s build more missing middle homes!👍

Here’s rowhouse 1. It seems fine.
Corner lot. Lots of parking on the street.
Let’s get this upzoning done!👍
