> the more expensive homes do have the function of allowing people to move out of their starter homes into something that better fits their needs.
another way to look at this is that unlike the working class, if upper-income people want to buy a house, they are going to buy a house. so if there is no new-build luxury housing available, they're instead going to purchase homes that otherwise would have gone to lower-market buyers. this has happened in a lot of desirable cities that have underbuilt for decades; houses and apartments that at first look would seem to be part of the market for the working class and first-time buyers have instead been bid up on and purchased by upper-class buyers because there is so little higher-end housing available. so while luxury housing might not be what we want to see built, allowing those units to go up takes a lot of pressure off of the lower end of the market

i mean, yeah, you're right, including a description of his clothing is totally useless unless it goes out basically when the crime is occurring. a much more useful strat would be to splash the surveillance video with his face all over the place

I think a much more valuable statistic would be comparing cases brought by prosecutors to number of convictions

The NYPD? Arrest someone who hadn't committed any crime? They would never do that!

maybe, but it's basically pointless to include the ethnicity anyways given how big the city is. "the rapist was white" ok great, that narrows it down to like 5 million people "the racist was black" oh ok, even better, only 2 million people etc

yeah i mean that's the big challenge, but i assume if they're willing to take a substantial haircut on the $/sqft they can find a tenant, and having a tenant pay any portion of their fixed lease costs seems preferable to just eating the full cost of a 30 year 10 floor lease if they are legitimately never using the space
