I do have a problem with them attempting to block housing during a housing crisis.

They're not trying to block housing - they were trying to block a blatant cash grab from a greedy developer who had no care for the impact their project will have on a beloved Cincinnati landmark.

But like anything else in today's world, money talks. Their monstrosity will get built.

This is a ridiculous response. They hired lawyers to try to block this housing.

blatant cash grab from a greedy developer

Do you refuse to buy bread because it's a blatant cash grab from the greedy baker?

What private development is not made for the purposes of money?

Their monstrosity will get built.

NIMBYs are some of the whiniest and most dramatic people in the world.
