What's your feeling on the housing development going on in Media, Pa?

  1. God forbid people want to live in a nice place... per the US Census... Media Borough had 6400 residents in 1970... we currently have an estimated 5400... so we still have a ways to go.

  2. I'd rather see underutilized property redeveloped than losing open space

    1. What open space are you referring to? Most of the development we are seeing is taking place on previously developed parcels that had fallen into disrepair - West End Flats, West End Walk, the new Wawa, the coming Hampton Inn are all replacing old, decaying, vacant structures. Like it or not Brooke Street is surely next for re-development.

    2. I didn't mean open space in the borough; rather, that redeveloping a used car lot and produce market into 162 high density units is better than cutting down more areas woodlands or paving over more local meadows for 162 equivalently priced single family homes.

  3. Parking parking parking will be the dark spot in an otherwise robust RE market and still a cool town
