Alex - Frederick, MD
I recently moved to the county with my wife who grew up here and one of the things I love about downtown Frederick is the mixed zoning and walkability that provides a home-y feeling and a real sense of community. The proposal of NAC11 seems to provide more of the same 21st century construction that fits some housing and a lot of cars into a space but brings with it no soul or community. I would love to see downtown continue to grow, but it should grow in the ways that already draw people to our lovely city, not in the ways that push them out of our neighboring counties.
