also my Mom worked downtown on 2nd st/Wash. in early 50's too! I'm not anti-developer -gotta have em. But Phx has suffered from too much land spec for too long. So i suggest some kind of progressive tax on undeveloped parcels, i know this isn't popular, but gauge it to typical development time period, like 3 years. If no action, then progressive tax surcharge kicks in. If flipped, the clock starts ticking again. doesn't have to be highest use to begin with. marc-architecturedotcom
