Re: New Census Population Estimates

The city of Dallas has more than enough potential to grow population south of the river, it really should be a municipal priority. Go ahead and annex land like all the other cities do.

I've always liked the idea of Irving merging into Dallas.

Re: Reunion (Tower, hotel, and??)

Im all in favor of extending HSR to DFW and DTFW. Gotta let Arlington make due with regular intraurban rail, be it light rail coop with dart or new TRE route from FW to union station.

HSR to the airport and FW becomes viable with a I-35 route.

Re: Dallas - Fort Worth high-speed rail project

HSR should not be used for interurban travel, nctcog is being weird. Fort Worth becomes a viable link to the Dallas station when the Austin, San Antonio and Monterrey line adds destinations other than Houston
