Exciting right? Hey, I'm all for development. It's exhilarating living in a city that is growing at the rate Boise is. But has anybody thought about how this may affect the Greenbelt? I didn't really appreciate the Greenbelt until I moved away. None of the places I lived had anything like it running right through the middle of the city. What's the environmental impact? Will these apartments be an eyesore to those floating down the river? I'm just asking questions. What are your thoughts?
