Density is an extremely important component of my thesis. It is the elemental quotient in the equation that could make a proposal like this be a success or a failure. It would be responsible to do a study of existing density reports to provide a comparison to what I propose.
Background on Density
Density has been a dirty word since the 1950’s when the face of density was low-income government built housing. With bleak buildings set on lifeless landscapes with nearly no connection to surrounding communities, and with no way for the residents to identify with the buildings they just became an incubator for crime, and frustration. The poor design, development and oversight of several high profile high density projects has created a common response of many local jurisdictions to limit density to a land and resource gobbling minimum.
