Well, in a market, when the price of something falls, more of that something usually gets bought. Over the past few years, the price of making colorful maps has fallen dramatically.
Cheaper maps means more maps.
And the mayor's blight plan is full of them. In fact, it's really less a blight plan than a blight analysis. The mayor's staff has produced a crackerjack analysis of depopulation and the resulting blight of vacant property, and the best-looking maps we've ever had showing us where the blight is. But there are problems. Some have complained that I'm a or cynic for my early critique of the mayor's plan.
