I support this development. We need more affordable (and all) housing. This concept plan provides the kind housing we need and is compatible with the surrounding land uses. This reminds me of the apartment and townhouse developments in Sequoyah Hills, which are an asset to that neighborhood. More thoughtful density like this will increase walkability, transit viability, and neighborhood serving business opportunity. Please support/allow this development.

We have had the privilege of teaching hundreds of our neighbors about the fundamentals of real estate investing over the last 4 years in free events every month. Between that and our work serving families as local real estate agents we are having discussions about housing and affordability every day with both the consumers and providers of housing.
Given the attractiveness and popularity of Knoxville - the cost of living, the arts, the Urban Wilderness, culture, natural beauty and the people here that have made this a wonderful place to raise my family - we know that we will continue to see increased population growth. The only solution for growth is to provide more housing. We need only look to the challenges that Hardin Valley faces to see the consequences of only approving single family housing.
If we can create denser housing, especially close to our urban core, we can build for the future of Knoxville. The vision of this project, especially with the use of internal parking, green space and the mix of townhomes and apartments would ultimately benefit the community. We support denser housing in ALL of Knoxville as the only way out is to build for a better future.
