Boston. I can't stop thinking about housing.
Great question! It can be tough to communicate the difference between what’s allowed and what actually gets built. One way to illustrate the difference is to look at Corinth St.
Corinth St’s current zoning allows for building up to 3 stories, and has been in place for 16 years.

That's a good question. They're probably defensive by default since their origins were about preventing stuff (fires, poor people moving nearby, yada yada).
That said, I think Hartford's zoning code might be considered positive vision-y.
