On the Housing Crisis

 

Ibbitson of the Globe and Mail this the problem is solved by allowing cities to sprawl instead of having green belts. I think at best that's half of it. I think it is at least as important to tear down zoning restrictions in the city proper. For example, requiring high rises downtown to include huge amounts of parking space.

Many or most city residents don't have a car, and don't need one. Build what the market wants.
