Una tierna
mirada es como
la noche que
canta infinita
cuando el soplo
suave de una
estrella sincera
ilumina el campo
y el perfil del
pasado…

There seems plenty of space on them there. Of course, motor vehicle congestion is a nightmare there, but that’s a function of building out instead of up (as well as the infatuation with cars as a status symbol etc.) . I would have to check the data on that specific area to be sure, but I’m pretty sure we’re looking at 1/10th or less the population densities that that many global cities have. There is a lot of space available for “phallic construction,” especially smaller “clitoral construction” like this.

San Jose’s fundamental geography of sidewalks, streets and avenues simply won’t tolerate the level of traffic (both vehicular and pedestrian) that building up instead of out demands. Already, San Jose traffic is a nightmare. It can only get worse with this kind of phallic construction being undertaken.

For all kinds of social and environmental reasons, San José really needs to build up rather than out.

The concern may be an engineering one, since building up in an earthquake-prone area has to present challenges, but I gather that the engineers nowadays know how to meet these challenges. Hope so.
