More housing at higher monthly rents raising the market rents for the area. Supply siders are so disingenuous it’s sad.

Right we should be advocating for less housing and then prices will go down?
Maybe we should have a lottery for housing like this project is essentially. What happens to the people who don't have a winning lottery ticket I am not sure.

Absolutely not!!! Society should advocate for more affordable housing. There are smart people around who should and can devise new ways to incentivize building affordable housing instead of the endless luxury high rises popping up like weeds. The current model is NOT working.

yes, because the current model is NYC not building enough of any type of housing
