“Never has a public official who makes the approvals ever said to me, ‘How much will your rent increases be?’ Never cared about a single thing, but I cannot tell you how many times they ask where everyone will park when they come over for a birthday. No one cares about the quality of life for the tenants. I’ve never had someone say, ‘How tall are your ceilings? Are you doing the minimum?’ Ceiling height makes a big difference!” Instead, the focus was always on parking. “We care more about housing for our cars than we care about housing for ourselves. Period.”
