Fish don’t need bicycles, and we don’t need to hoard greenspace when it can be consolidated very well into something useful by so many more people.
At larger scale, consolidating greenspace surrounding clusters of effective dense mixed-use residential cuts land-use tremendously, re-wilds a lot of other space or returns it to agriculture, and achieves the density required for better transit and savings on infrastructure costs. The housing has to be effective, and I think the new “mixed-use consolidated over a transit stop” configuration is a definite winner … as long as it’s not wood (aka Fire’s Favourite Food).
