I generally oppose government “solutions” and spending.

But I think the country has an over-abundance of corporate real estate and a critical shortage of affordable residential real estate. Perhaps if government got out of the way we might be able to return to the days when young people could afford to house themselves.

That's a great solution for some empty office buildings and warehouse spaces.

I have lived in several beautiful lofts and even prefer it.

Office buildings often made great candidates for conversion into condos.

My 22 year old (and liberal) daughter is always coming up with a “the government oughta” scenario. I try to explain to her that is why states like in the NE or left coast have such high taxes because they are always coming up with another “the government oughta” plan that “wouldn’t cost that much”.
