The amount of developable land has little to do with affordability. As long as developers continue to build only luxury housing the cost of living in the city does rise. As well as the ever increasing property taxes, which is my landlord's excuse for raising rent. We definitely need a more balanced approach to new housing being built in the city.

This parking garage being transformed into housing is fantastic. This section of Broadway (Belmont to Diversey) is one of the coolest sections of Lakeview IMO but it still feels a bit too car centric. This should help break that a bit.
