^Beautiful map-- I can never get tired of looking at this.
One question I was thinking about is why is there the rigid adherence that the most intense development around the stations must be concentrated to a 1/2 mile radius (10 minute walk) around the stations? This same standard is reflexively used whether the transit line is in sweltering DC, snowy Cleveland, or LA with temperate weather and an active/fit population that exercises more than people in other parts of the country. Perhaps 2/3 or 3/4 mile radius should be used instead.
