RE: Tranquiltiy Remembered

Hollywood reminds me of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn - what the hell is the matter with developers? Even self-interest takes into account long-range planning and the ambiance of streets with mature trees and well-laid out neighbourhoods.

Sort:  

Apparently there is a formula according to which the value of a mature tree declines at a rate inversely proportional to the value of the land in which it is growing. Fortunately, there are a couple of mountain ranges nearby with lots of trees. That's because developers haven't figured out how to build high-rises on vertical surfaces. Give 'em time.
