I Can't See Saks!

So The Donald gets the go-ahead for his Biltmore "high-rise" (only in Phoenix is 150' a high rise). I think it is funny that the city council is so concerned with the "delicate balance" of mountain views, luxury retail, and golf courses for Biltmore residents. The city council doesn't seem to be too concerned with the delicate balance of crime, homelessness, and poverty in Phoenix's real downtown. I would like to see revitalization in the real downtown instead of continually pushing commerce north and east.

There is plenty of room for peaceful co-existence between residents and developers. I applaud the move for vertical development instead of expanding our city to LA and Albuquerque.
