“In urban centers, residential is the highest and best use,” he said. “converting older office to residential, with public support, into affordable housing -- is a must.
As we rebuild office tower-dominated CBDs into more 15-minute neighborhoods, we must ensure they have workforce housing.
There is a model
for this: New York City has inclusive zoning; when a developer wants more
height etc., they have to include 25 percent more affordable housing.”
Florida said the decline in retail creates an opportunity in the suburbs, especially for malls and office parks near major highways or on main bus routes.
He said increased density and
affordable housing could turn these huge land masses into livable areas with
co-working space and mixed-use.
