New York’s First Electric Skyscraper Promises Luxury With Lower Emissions | An apartment tower in downtown Brooklyn has ditched fossil fuel heating and appliances
This is downtown Brooklyn - NYC. Building the apartments in your image would lower density where this skyscraper is being built.
Luxury buildings in downtown Brooklyn are not for the super rich - they're for the 1%ers who work at banks downtown, and will almost certainly be rental units which are pretty constantly booked.
I live in Brooklyn. While the transit could use some expansions it's not only the best transit system in the USA it also has the most subway stations of any transit system on earth.
If that hasn't fixed housing affordability what's your proposed solution?
What's that? Oh density? Ok cool glad we agree. Let's build skyscrapers.
