Building housing more densely doesn't mean you have to sacrifice open space, light, or air. Older cities have long taught us this. The notion that a private yard is the only way to get outdoor space is wrong & antiquated.
42 newer homes on 3/4 of an acre, with great open space!

This is higher density than LA's R3 zoning, and it looks absolutely gorgeous.

Here's a gantry crane operator at the Port of Singapore loading containers on trucks remotely. The 170+ grants cranes are autonomous, so they only bring in the operator when there's an exception that the robots need help with. Thanks for the tour @singaporepsa!

He's controlling the cranes that move boxes within the port, because apparently Singapore is like a "packet switching router for global trade".
