> that equals replacing whatever might already be there with a giant McMansion That's the opposite of what we see around here. Developers buy houses from the 1940 to 60's (big houses on big lots), tear them down and build an 8-pack or 6-pack (depending on lot size) of tiny townhomes. The only people building large houses are wealthy individuals building for themselves (as opposed to a development company building to sell) because they can afford to take the potential-profit hit and just build what they want.
