^ That might be Solow’s thinking but the NIMBYs probably will not get that message. These people (if they are still around) are thinking how “massive” and “monstrous” this tower is.

You’ll be surprised how little knowledge of building/architecture/planning the attendees know. They are mostly older, retirees that go because that’s something to do and they only have one mindset: stop/stifle/downsize the developers and their proposals.

What they do know is driven by the CB’s anti-development pamphlets and propaganda.

I went to this one for the Solow East side rezoning back in 2008 and I can tell you that most of those attendees are probably not even alive today.
