Yep, more than anything 15-20 story apartment towers would help, but we can’t seem to figure out how to do that.

I think a lot of homeowners also have a vested interest in not building these because of you built enough reasonably priced either apartment/condo towers it would eventually lower rent and housing costs

Yeah something like six stories is a big price jump and then 20 stories is another big price jump. So building 7-8 stories is not as efficient. That’s why you see a lot of 5 and 15 story buildings and developers prefer not to build 6-8 story buildings if they can avoid it
