Downtown density

The first thing planners should consider before adopting the misinformed view that supports the idea that we must increase the central city's density and build huge buildings with inadequate parking: What effect does it have on the neighborhood - the people that live there? This should be a separate concern from what is to be done about affordable housing. Again, the first consideration should be for the people who have homes and lives in those neighborhoods slated for disaster. Downtown density benefits paid planners/consultants, developers and construction companies. Seems clear, simple to understand. Then, planners can consider appropriate areas to do this intrusive building.
