Reader is concerned with
development's downside

"A thriving 'hig- density' downtown means more shoppers ... more sales tax ... infrastructure, public safety ... ." (Editor Carol Bogart's column, June 28).

Crime, maybe, or overcrowding, pollution, or overloaded services? Perhaps it's not that simple?
