Now when you start a development corp - you'll be able to build just what you want to build and not what someone else thinks you should build!

Living in a 1,200 sq. ft. patio villa with a 2-car garage, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths would be much cheaper than paying for a similar apartment even taking into consideration the taxes and exterior maintenance. I don't have a problem with the apartments going up but I would never live in one, I need air, quiet, room, etc. I lived in an apartment in 1966 and will never do it again. Just as a side note, we went to the Lofts to see the amenities last week and there was a couple sitting in their Loft apartment patio looking out at the parking lot and garages, I think not.
