What does the future hold for Freo? (heraldonlinejournal.com)

I think if the people of Freo can come up with a fairly tight architectural vision, that includes 5 or 6 storey limits on building heights in certain areas, then people might feel a bit more relaxed about developera coking in.

*edit: 'developers coming in.'

Unfortunately developers give themselves a shit name by building the same cookie cutter buildings as cheaply as legally required. Then they get butthurt when people aren't interested in their tired vision to make their suburb look exactly like every single other suburb in this monotonous town.

"Is that the vision for Freo? To no longer be a place to go? To only service its local population? I can't think of anything that would make it more like every other suburb in this town than that."

Hahaha! I can think of something! Cutting back on public transport! Oh.... wait, they already started that last year with CAT buses.

I love Fremantle, every time i go there, which is unfortunately rare, i find a new place that has its own unique characteristic. But i'm only refering to bar/bistro places. I go there even less for things like shopping, cafes, beach.
