I suspect he's referring to TODs in older suburban cities like Paterson or East OrangeTransit-oriented "development" is counterproductive; the goal is bizarre insofar as the implications of making the intended residency dependent on the public people movers, no matter how badly the service gets degraded (and with the endless multilevels versus EMUs, the service keeps getting slower and slower). Railroads developed independently of such myopic viewpoints, and TOD fans fail to recognize that, nor do they recognize the true inherent value of rail transportation. |
