    If you don’t build shitty apartments for the rich they’ll just gentrify poor areas.

    More housing is more housing.

        This is downtown Brooklyn - NYC. Building the apartments in your image would lower density where this skyscraper is being built.

        Luxury buildings in downtown Brooklyn are not for the super rich - they’re for the 1%ers who work at banks downtown, and will almost certainly be rental units which are pretty constantly booked.

        You don’t get how housing constrained NYC is.

            We’re talking about Brooklyn NY

            Do you know a single thing about Brooklyn NY?

            Cause you don’t sound like you know a single thing about Brooklyn NY. Or about what it means to be housing constrained.

                Ok so you don’t know what you’re talking about.

                I live in Brooklyn. While the transit could use some expansions it’s not only the best transit system in the USA it also has the most subway stations of any transit system on earth.

                If that hasn’t fixed housing affordability what’s your proposed solution?

                What’s that? Oh density? Ok cool glad we agree. Let’s build skyscrapers.

                    Mai sei mai andato a Roma? Vissi sia a Roma che a Napoli e nessun parte del trasporto pubblico è di qualità simile a quello di NYC. Nessun. Parte.

                    Scemo.

                    Fuck off troll.
