Zoning reform is not enough if the projects cannot get financed.
Places are making ADUs, duplexes, cottage courts, small apartment buildings, and neighborhood-scale projects legal. But the capital system still works against it.

Cleveland just approved a Housing Innovation District that brings together zoning reform, waived permit fees, vacant-lot housing, home repair, storefront improvements, and infrastructure finance.
That is the kind of systems thinking more cities need.

What is an ADU?
Accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, are one of the most practical first steps a community can take toward a more incremental, affordable, and adaptable housing system. An ADU is a small, independent home located on the same lot as a primary residence.

Why is rent so damn high?
One of the reasons is that the new International Building Code adds about $250 a month to rent for a typical two-bed.
This study shows a 12.4% increase in construction costs just from going from 2012 IBC to 2021 IBC.

Thanks to all the business owners and community leaders who took the time to welcome our walking tour of downtown Fayetteville, Ark. last week!
We saw a multigenerational live-work building and learned about the process of rediscovering a building under a 1960s facade.

We've made the cheapest forms of housing illegal, difficult, or financially impossible to produce, then we are shocked when the poorest folks can't find housing.
If we want fewer people living outside, we need to rebuild the housing ladder from the bottom up.
