    There’s a lot of negativity in this thread. I think people often forget that perfect is the enemy of good. Cheap housing is objectively a good thing.

      Honestly, my biggest worry/criticism is that there is no way to prevent these 99 homes from becoming 99 Airbnb’s.

      Don’t think there is any way for them to prevent that though.

        I’m actually surprised big hotel hasn’t tried to have air bnb outlawed.

        I’m not even sure which monster to root for there.
