It appears luxury housing is the only damn thing being made and allowed to continue. It's fuckin stupid the shit that's being pulled everywhere with housing. Here in EP the mayor made a big photoshoot before election of "breaking ground" on a housing project, that's been sitting for years. A percentage of which is supposed to be affordable. That pile of dirt that they literally brought in instead of actually just digging some up from this empty lot is still there, untouched. While on the other end of the street a nice apartment or condo building is put in. Then there's the Kettle Point development that literally paid a fine just so they wouldn't have to do a percentage for "the poors". Then up the road more where there was gonna be a huge waterfront development with a bunch of housing, a percentage affordable, and shops, restaurants and what not. Straightened out the land and now just sitting there some years, long empty waterfront strip. Then there's Exxon that owns the most land in the city and most of it empty now and they don't pay property taxes on any of their land, I looked it up. It's all valued at $0.
