Alternative #2 - Metropolitan Cities                                    << #1 Back     #3 Next >>

This alternative has the most focused growth. Most of the growth would occur in the metropolitan or core suburban cities. This would mean considerable redevelopment, with new housing and jobs in centers near high capacity transit. Significantly less growth would occur in the region's rural and unincorporated urban areas.
