First, I have heard proponents of NSO’s say it will help preserve the neighborhood property values. Then I have heard others say it is to preserve the “character” of the neighborhood. Well, which is it? Values or character? Show me an “inner city” neighborhood where builders have torn down old homes to build newer and larger homes and the values have actually decreased below where it was before they started. Preston Hollow, Park Cities , Midway Hollow, Lakewood and Lakewood Heights certainly don’t seem to be hurting from it when it comes to increasing property values. Lake Highlands has even started this trend in certain neighborhoods.
