This part really spoke to me:

"It's also important to remember that the buildings from the 1960s and 1970s will eventually need to be renovated (or demolished) and that will also cost money. This is why the new apartment developments are so important! Objecting to new apartment buildings as "gentrification" is just wrong-headed."

I've noticed that many, MANY of the apartments in/near the core, as well as the mountain, are currently undergoing refurbishment - mainly regarding balconies, parking garages, and awnings/openings. This is a good thing - many of these were looking pretty forlorn, not to mention unsafe. Hopefully, this is a sign of more money coming in for rent, and that some of that money is going in to sorely needed structural repair. This is a good thing!
