  as you can see from the graphs above, the housing shortage is an artificial crisis created by a nefarious cabal of private equity firms |

as you can see from the graphs above, the housing shortage is an artificial crisis created by a nefarious cabal of private equity firms When you always work from the underlying premise that corporations or elites are truly to blame, data that isnt premised on that can just be discarded because it’s either a lie or fails to o-count for all of these other variables that corporations or elites won’t allow into studies. It can’t possibly be “this is a diffuse problem owing to citizens, committees, and boards at a local level all across the country over decades blocking growth and fucking over housing and rental prices.” |

I mean it's not as simple as NIMBYs either. And community action to prevent inappropriate development often gets categorized as NIMBYism when it's actually about protecting quality of life from business and real estate interests.

Yeah like when current home owners block affordable housing being built because that's not what they sighned up for.

So what development is good development? Just leave it up to communities to decide? My wife is a planner. If the zoning regs were left up to citizens, there would be no development, ever.

It depends on the area. Housing development can be totally appropriate in areas with the infrastructure to support it, significant open space, etc. The problem, at least in downstate NY, is developers trying to force housing development in areas that already have overwhelmed schools and infrastructure because it's easy to sell at a higher profit, while urban areas like New Rochelle and the Bronx are underutilized because developers can't make the same profits. You can incentivize development in those areas and it would make a lot more sense for everyone, but it would cost the state money so it doesn't happen. |

profit margins for affordable housing are pretty thin, at least from what I’ve seen. If you’re setting some units aside as affordable, then you’re already taking a hit in terms of loan agreements. And then all the lawsuits n delays n shit. A recent mixed-use project with affordable units in a neighborhood north of me was next to a “historic district” (literally the same homes as everywhere else) on the site of an abandoned grocery store. The initial seven stories was just tooooo tall. So it got cut down to five, which eliminated the parking and cut into the already thin profit margins. Neighborhood association still wasn’t pleased — and now they’re bitching about the lack of parking. Some of their genius ideas included something like a two-story building with four condos, which would obviously be a waste of time and money for the city to provide preferential tax cuts and grants for. It’s insane.

apps.urban.org/features/cost-of-affordable-housing/ Pretty decent lil tool. I don’t know exactly what the solution is, but what’s going on now just isn’t working most of the time. For any city development office, the accelerated rate of vacancies since the pandemic kicked off is a serious problem that adds fuel to the fire.
