... but is it going to have small-scale retail and be in any way walkable, not just dense? We've talked about Belmont Village and how it's not actually special. But I'd rather live somewhere like Belmont than somewhere with a bunch of towers and 0 amenities.
I think the area has quite a lot of amenities (except a real grocery store), but they are all mostly car-based right now and could really use some more foot traffic.
