I agree with this thread. Putting housing on corridors is a simple take on the issue. But finding sites that actually work for housing needs to be an all sites-on-deck approach. Especially true for small-scale housing (<12 units); also, land costs are higher on major streets.
Cosigning this thread. "Put all the new housing on the corridors" is 50% political cowardice to appease NIMBYism, 50% planners afflicted with planner-brain seeking superficial order.
