Blatchford and the Exhibition Lands redevelopment are important pieces of Edmonton’s housing puzzle, but they’re just pieces. Solving our housing crisis requires embracing density as a city-wide solution, not a problem to be contained in specific areas.

This makes sense. I hear a lot of pushback against other neighbourhoods taking on density and just putting everything in Blatchford, and Blatchford is a good reference for denser development, but the city as a whole needs to take on denser housing if the supply is to keep up with demand. This also goes for adding a few new towers downtown.
