We Need To Crash the Market for Entry-Level Homes

To escape the housing crisis, we need a lot of housing to be built quickly. The key isn't large, ponderous projects; it's fast, widespread incremental development. We know the types of units that can be scaled and we know how to build them. The only thing we need now is for cities to devote themselv

"By thinking beyond immediate needs and designing with adaptability in mind, we can build communities that are not just functional today but that continue to evolve and thrive for generations to come.

Love that it worked out and love seeing the tour of each / the user of each unit.
