General Urban Cambridge Updates and Rumours

[Bytor]

Yeah basically. They'd rather have businesses with boarded up windows or old newspaper covering up store fronts. Instead of tourists and citizens walking the street, it seems they'd prefer to have junkies and riff raff digging through recycling bins for change to get their next fix. Downtown Cambridge could be the nicest downtown in the region but old white people seem to prefer to watch it die, especially when you read their so called objections to the LRT. Yet at the end of the day, they'll blame us nothing ever happens there.

Time to wake up boomers, it's 2021.

I respect that you have an opinion on why or why not Cambridge is being progressive however, I take exception and I am offended with your remark "Old White People"   I find your comment to be offensive, derogatory and and at a minimum, disrespectful to the people of Cambridge.

It's pretty darn accurate, though, when you consider what demographic that 99% of NIMBYs and ant-LRT people fall into. White baby Boomers tend to be the biggest bloc that actively complains to their municipal councillors about proposed policies that would make both our urban cores and suburban neighbourhoods better places for a wider variety of people.
