  Building at the high end (the kind of stuff HN cares about) is partly an exercise in artistic style which winds up being political. Building at the low end is apolitical. With razor thin margins that crap doesnt make the cut. No matter how many millions of square feet of warehouse and pole barn you build there is no room for opinions, style and politics when your margin is pennies on the dollar.

    Low-income housing is extremely political.
