Quotes
The crisis we face today is not merely a supply problem. Let’s eschew absolutist labels such as NIMBY and YIMBY that tend to drive us further apart.
But for now it’s all ‘go, go, go’ and Cambridge is struggling to figure out what the community mitigation should be.
To have someone thank you for sending them an email to me is the highest compliment.
