Not if no one can afford watermelons and so they just rot in the stands. These luxury units get built in droves, go for insane rates, and sit empty while people who could afford a cheaper unit are out on the street because there's not enough affordable supply.

Perhaps you don't understand the concept of supply and demand. If there's less of the luxury units, then people will bid more for the limited available ones and the ones that get priced out will go down a tier. It just trickles down.
