An example of "Neighborhood Associations Gone Bad" is the proposed 5-story development on the southwest corner of Speedway/Stone, across the street from PCC. Do any of you remember that? The NA in that area shot down the initial proposal, the developers tried to compromise on their concerns, but then the end result was that the NA could not live adjacent to a 5-story "skyscraper" that would...drum roll...bring too much traffic to the neighborhood and block mountain views. So what has been sitting there now for nearly the last 10 years? A vacant lot with weeds and glistening shattered bottle glass. That's a lovely view alright. Property values are probably still low and there has been ZERO, ZIP econ development there ever since.
