While the Westside MAX was built to funnel commuters into downtown, there’s lots of exciting projects to build housing and destinations along the alignment, hopefully the mostly empty publicly owned park and ride lots adjacent to stations see the same future.

Portland: Why don't Gateway and downtown Beaverton look like this? Why is a region famous for land use planning incapable of building anything more than four stories more than 2 miles from downtown, even on very frequent rail lines?
