Question: In the six months since Arlington passed Missing Middle, what have you seen and what do you think of it? For those who want more of an introduction to Missing Middle, you can read my initial thoughts on MM from March. I consider this to be a modest pace of applications, suggesting there’s not a huge appetite yet to build Missing Middle. Applications Don’t Mean MuchSo far, all we’ve seen are applications for Missing Middle construction not actual construction, but it’s important to understand that applications, even the five approved applications, are a small first step towards delivering a Missing Middle project. They will likely be one of the first to give us a glimpse of what early Missing Middle will be, and can be.
