The city of Bothell, WA, is making strides to welcome new businesses by eliminating parking mandates. “I want there to be more Bothell in Bothell,” Mayor Mason Thompson told King 5 News. (Photo credit: Joe Mabel, Wikimedia Commons)

Similar point. People get more upset about 5 story infill than they do about a single family home or a fast food joint being renovated despite the latter directly contributing to displacement.

we lost the plot when it became more sinister for a childless tech worker to buy a 1br in a "tower" on former industrial land than for them to buy a 4 br in the suburbs

we have starter homes being built today in portland. but they’re not detached single family homes, and they’re only built in a few areas zoned for midsize apartment buildings

Tim Davis@kettlemoraine.bsky.social

The percentage of starter homes (under 1400 square feet) being built in the U.S. has absolutely plummeted. In 1980, 40% of new detached homes being built were starter homes. By 2016, it was just 7%. @sightline.org @andersem.bsky.social #zoning #housing #HousingCrisis www.youtube.com/watch?v=zio8...
