MISSING MIDDLE

County Board allows 6-plexes Countywide.  Trial court voids it.  Appeals court reverses, then backtracks, then reverses again.  Residents appeal ... case still pending.

Langston Blvd 

The County has a plan to Ballstonize the Langston Blvd corridor, replacing accessible, single-story shops with towering canyons of buildings. 

​

Its plan aims for a 40% reduction in the percent of housing in that area that is affordable...from 1-in-4 units to almost 1-in-7, while modestly growing total units.

​

Developers quickly are moving ahead with high-end condos.
