Chicago is the 3rd largest MSA in the US. We are 10x bigger than other markets. Where are the Bears going to go? Columbus Ohio? San Jose? Be real. Chicago doesn't owe The MacCaskey family anything. They should be happy we don't run them out of town and find another team.

It’s gonna take more than some prayer to pull the city out of debt if this were ever to go through. This is NOT a good deal for the city or for tax payers.

Growth in the core of Chicago is super important. Growth dramatically improves our financial situation and we should adopt pro growth (YIMBY) policies.

27K Followers 14 Following The Council of Economic Advisers for the Biden-Harris AdministrationIn the vast majority of US cities, roughly two-thirds of new "luxury" apartments are naturally affordable to households earning 80% of the area median income.

INTERACTIVE MAP & RESEARCH: How much of your city's new housing is priced affordable to low-income families? Probably more than you think! Glad to be in @metroabundance: metroabundance.org/how-inclusiona…
Relatedly: The research people learn of early in grad school is almost exclusively from the top 1% in quality. Partly why second-year Ph.D. students are a brutal audience—they are comparing the random paper they are seeing to the top 50 ever.
just occurred to me impostor syndrome might also be a form of network effect: on average, the peers we interact with are more successful than us, because more successful scientists have more exposure
Pershing & Western 📍 “You know what our city needs? A football stadium !” 😢
Dense new infill supply creates more vacancies, faster, for low-income urbanites than sprawl does on a per unit basis That means infill YIMBYism is super important! But remember it's *per unit*. At massive post-WWII scale, sprawl supply did indeed make Manhattan cheap in 1970

You're telling me unsubsidized affordability mandates don't actually lead to affordable housing construction?
In Feb the councilmember’s office said there were permit apps for 111 affordable homes because of the zoning overlay, but that’s not actually true. I want more affordable housing in west philly and wish they would be transparent about whether this is the way to achieve that
Cannot emphasize enough that Trump does not have any ideas to reduce inflation. This is just a very poorly designed tax on middle- and working-class people.
Gentrification discourse in this country is supremely cursed. Repopulating Detroit is a good thing. With repopulation comes increased services, infrastructure, and better education.
The idea that Detroit suffers from gentrification is a wild fantasy.

South Shore’s population growth in the last decade was driven by black and Latino in migration. Maybe that’s UChicago related but it seems tenuous? See this definitively analysis of the 2020 census in Chicago. breadpricefixer.medium.com/chicago-census…
I can guarantee that not a single one of the YIMBYs mad in the replies and QTs that the U of C students are (correctly) making demands around gentrification has ever spoken to anyone from South Shore
@TraceyRyniec No bus on Clybourn, and I am not sure how much good it would do once it gets east if Southport & isn’t really filling a gap in the transit network anymore. The on street parking is not used enough for me to mourn the parking lots. I do informal parking surveys when in the area.
@ArchiJake Right? Not hard to do. You would lose all that parking, though, but that just means they should add more buses to Clybourn (does it even HAVE a bus?). The parking lots are a buzz killer.
@TraceyRyniec A great chamber of commerce would coordinate relocating shops in largely vacant strip malls into the ground floors of new mixed use buildings, in order to allow those sites to be redeveloped.
@ArchiJake Agreed. Some of those strip malls should be redeveloped. Lots of empty stores in them anyway. Also, we know that some of the old manufacturing buildings nearby are being converted into housing now. Good news.
So many lots along Clybourn that, if redeveloped taller than 4 stories, could contribute so much housing to the most in demand neighborhood in the city. chicago.urbanize.city/post/2033-n-ki… Hopefully this trend continues & eventually starts gobbling up the strip malls along this corridor.
Every city should be trying to boost their population like Milwaukee is doing. These recommendations seem very effective!
The City of Milwaukee has a goal to grow to one million residents, and today, the @MilwaukeeDCD released its "Growing MKE" draft plan. Plan website here: engage.milwaukee.gov/growingmke/gro… Full plan here: …emke-files.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/4917/1443/2719… Dig in, nerds.
