Stapleton Develpment Plan (1995)
I hadn't looked at the master plan recently, thanks for the link.

Given that the masterplan was published while TLC's "Creep" was at the top of the charts and Friends' Season One was airing on NBC, I would have hoped there may have been time for an update to the plan for Northfield. Especially given the success of the south-of-70 portion of Stapleton, and also the massive shift in consumer preferences toward denser, walkable communities. Instead, IMO this final section of Northfield is far more egregious than what preceded it, and it's all the more redundant given its proximity to the Arsenal.

But you're right, I'm just bitching, not adding anything substantial. Carry on.
