So a developer wants to build a hundred basic units (350 square feet/30 square metres) in a block and the cost is costing eighty million dollars?
We can do much better. Where are the factories building the prefabricated units to build apartments from?
I have a friend from East Germany who's parents grew up in the Stalinist apartments. They solved this exact problem in the early 1950s. What is wrong with LA?
And not to pick on LA. This is a problem throughout the West as far as I can tell. What is wrong with us? Why can we not efficiently build housing?
