It was about 4m before the war. Is not about 3.6 Considering that today’s living arrangements (sqft per person) is quite different (larger) than 80 years ago, I am not sure this is working argument.
- magduf 8y agoThe simple solution is to build up. Build residential buildings twice as tall and suddenly having larger living units doesn't seem crazy. We have the technology today to build taller buildings than we did before WWII, more economically. The central problem with all these discussions about housing prices is construction. There isn't enough of it, it's too expensive in some places for what you're getting, the whole thing is completely broken and needs to be fixed. It should not be hard to build new housing units to modern standards.
