(Of course I'm not taking issue with the argument. If you owned a standalone house on a full block you owned in NYC, it would be worth way more than an apartment in a building on that block. But, damn. You don't own the right to every single space within x number of feet of your house just because you don't want the value of that house to drop. And frankly, I'm sick of people using the value of their house to justify every stupid racist, unsupportable notion.)

There's this thing called "eminent domain". Ok to use it for a stadium but not for housing?
