[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academic studies have found that upzoning isn't the magical panacea its ill-informed supporters think it is. It can lead to higher housing prices, not lower: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1078087418824672?journalCode=uarb [/quote] Upzoning has NEVER made sense, even just on the face of it. The academic examples always quoted where is does work are micro examples set in very controlled cities (Hong Kong, Singapore). Without those controls, it just won't work here in DC.[/quote]
