My take is De Blasio is going to cram more 3rd worlders in NY who will be voting Democrat. If you immigrated from Calcutta then NYC does not seem densely populated

Her’e your immigrant roommate. Housing is now denser, and your rent is cut in half. Vote DeBlasio!

Because he is a communist. People living in stark boxes is a dream for them.

Thank God I don’t live in New York City. Denser? What the heck is he talking about. It is clostrophic as it is already. He is clearly nutty....much worse then Bloomberg and I never thought that was possible.

I will continue living in my 3600 square foot home in Maryland (rented now) and my 2800 square foot home in Florida (current residence). I can’t imagine having to live in a 1000 square foot home. Of course there are 6 of us (myself, wife and four kids). New Yorkers must love it though.

I see the mayor is down with Agenda 21.

Didn’t Hitler make housing denser and more affordable for the Jews?

Here the proposal is to have people live in stacks of converted shipping containers.

You hit the nail on the head, in that, you have chosen to live somewhere besides a big city. You have chosen to live in a detached house. You have chosen a roomy residence which works for your family.

Trying to say, you exercised free choice.

Liberals say they are pro choice on abortion, but on so many other issues, including this housing issue, they want to tell us how we need to live. No thanks.........

If I remember right, the apartment buildings used to fall down a month after tenants moved in.

Didn't that of that. I was speculating on how much more crime there will be with the higher density fomenting much more stress than there already is there. Can't remember the studies of colonies of 'rats being put into ever shrinking spaces

So much for any middle class, not to mention the expedited outflow of wealthier individuals, and there tax dollars, seeking saner environs. Did I mention the corporations?

And why would people with money to spend want to visit NY City any more when they’ed be surrounded by dangerous illegals?

We should strive to be as dense (more than one definition) as Hong Kong.
