Check out the newest feature at the North Capitol Building, currently under construction: This 89-glass panel laylight depicts Utah through 14,000 glass pieces. The 25x25x9 foot piece was designed by Holdman Studios & installed earlier this month. Got a tour of it today

If I were looking to do my first development project. This is exactly the type of project I’d do. Northstar (the developer) bought a small single family home on a large lot, remodeled it, and built another single family home + three townhomes. What I like about it: Affordable, but complicated. Too small for the larger home builders, too complicated for the average fix and flipper. Efficient construction. Not a lot of earthwork & roads, which is the most finicky line item in your costs. Also no garages, so you can sell for cheaper. Infill location. Not competing with a lot of new for sale construction, also not a large boring development, can add some character and make it efficient.

@jodanc10 @devinzander Just need $1.4 M for land

Good read on the impact of massive supply of new apartments in Austin. Bottom line: New "luxury" apartment construction benefits ALL renters with lower rents and increased availability. Build MORE of everything, not just Affordable Housing alone.

“Why do you need wide streets Mr. Fireman?” “To accommodate huge fire trucks.” “Why do you need huge fire trucks?” “For emergencies.” “What kind of emergencies?” “Car crashes, mostly.” “Why are there so many car crashes?” “Because of wide streets we need for our trucks.”

@realBurhanAzeem @provocouncil @provocity imagine actually trying to make housing more affordable around here 👀

I can’t believe it - after years of advocacy, exclusionary zoning has ended in Cambridge. We just passed the single most comprehensive rezoning in the US—legalizing multifamily housing up to 6 stories citywide in a Paris style Here’s the details 🧵

Running through LA this morning I was reminded just how much developable land there is here. Endless lowrise retail, surfacing parking lots, etc. Must drive real estate people here mad to drive around and just stare at it all, given the housing shortage.

Boomers: we won’t sell our houses, you can’t build more houses, and we won’t pay for the infrastructure that supports our houses

@ronstauffer @CollinJHumphrey @jodanc10

I was the marketing director. Yes, you’d think people would want more space, but they never do. Bigger homes cost more to build, cost more to heat, cost more to maintain, and are harder to clean. A lot of people end up downgrading and selling their “dream” home because it’s just too big. The grandkids don’t visit often enough to justify the huge size. For whatever reason, people who retire often want to build these massive 4,000 sq ft houses with four bedrooms, but after a few years of a husband and wife living alone in this big sprawling house filled with empty, unused space, they sell it and get a much smaller place. People are funny like that.

Homeowners who’ve built their dream house: What’s the one thing you regret not adding? Or what a must have if you ever build again?

Finishing our basement. Decided to leave the ceilings exposed and paint it all black. Maintains ceiling height, leaves mechanicals exposed for easy access, and saves cost. What do you think?
