It feels like Freo and most suburbs are stuck between a rock and a hard place. We desperately need more places to live in, and NIMBYs are usually blamed for opposing this. But when you look at the absolute shite that developers are building for people to live in, I find it hard not to empathise with them somewhat. Once heritage is destroyed and replaced by a concrete jungle, that cannot be undone.
I couldn't agree more with your sentiment.
I usually come down feeling its the LGA's failure to have an ongoing coherent neighbourhood plan that developers are held to. Of course the argument bback is always one of cost, and apparently thats the end of the conversation for most people. We're never gona have our Gaudi moment with that attitude though.
