Fri, 09 Jun 2017 14:59:00 +0000http://www.marketurbanism.com/?p=4266#comment-21767That is obviously wrong. A larger volume of housing does not reduce prices in strong markets. Instead it results in a greater number of expensive units on the market. There are benefits to adding housing in a measured, community-friendly way, but ways to create or keep affordable housing, unfortunately for free-market idealists, are to constrain the market with rent control, inclusionary zoning and subsidies. Not always popular, but that’s reality.

Tue, 06 Jun 2017 03:51:00 +0000http://www.marketurbanism.com/?p=4266#comment-21765The lie lies in the myth that more market priced housing will allow costs to drop due to trite supply and demand anecdotal platitudes…It’s all still out of reach of most people, especially those with roots to the areas they’re being kicked out of due to financial warfare. When the zoning is utilized to allow this the city is then complicit in class warfare, just as they were when all of the highways were put right through black neighborhoods and districts or are when oil pipes are routed around white populations to snake around and go through Native American land. With around six times the houses as humans in this country, constant building is not necessary. We’re losing all of our great architecture and culture just to keep building (structures of inferior design, craftsmanship and materials) in order to appease an insatiable, black hole economy of destruction. https://www.facebook.com/groups/stopdemolishingvintageportlandhouses/

think this guy is just interested in getting rid of zoning. The
argument leading up to his conclusion didn’t seem to reflect what’s
happening in my area.

It’s not public housing, the people take care of themselves. The government simply takes their property off the market for those who are not in need or do not come from those neighborhoods.
