Cities are expanding and prices going up, with lower SES residents driven out regardless of this.

I think we both agree that this is not ideal and everyone knows what actually needs to happen for housing to stabilize and be reasonable. This isn’t that and between all the politics and profit incentive I doubt we will get much of that.

I do think this helps by increasing supply especially with 1400 affordable units. But if you disagree that’s okay, I don’t know everything about this and honestly it may turn out to be wrong.

Actually 100% agree with this take. There’s certainly no easy answer. But whatever we’re doing as a society isn’t currently working.
