Would it be possible for the city, and the owners of the land, to sell the Suffolk Downs land in small parcels to developers. By that I mean with small scale developers, ones who would only build a modern triple decker or two. Same with the Wonderland dog track. It seems like most new neighborhoods are built on super-blocks, it would be nice to see some small scale development for a change. It may blend with surrounding older neighborhoods better if homes are built this way.
Do any of the real estate experts on this forum know if this is feasible? I know it would be riskier for the state to build roads before selling off the smaller blocks.
Directly around the T stations the city could zone for developments higher than 3/4 stories, while zoning the rest of the neighborhood for modern triple deckers and brownstones.
