Reply to comment by dooster in Rents high. What is your alternative to increasing housing supply? by paul-e-walnts

The problem with this is that JC has built more new supply than any other city. We are the poster boy for new development. Instead it made the city nicer and somehow more desirable?

The sad fact is that, no matter what JC does, it can't fix a regional housing shortage. JC can't fix the problem, only nibble at the edges a bit.

I can’t tell if you think being nicer and more desirable is a good or bad thing?

Regardless of whether you’re being sarcastic, it is asinine how many JC posters think JC getting nicer and more desirable is a bad thing. It should be the paramount goal of any city to get nicer and more desirable.
