Why are these sheds everywhere? — NYC has unusually strict masonry inspection rules — NYC requires sheds rather than nets — Unusually high construction costs due to a separate unique rule High-rent city has many metaphorical rents to distribute. https://t.co/BcSmi7tONN https://t.co/ZplOrUyv0c — PolitiTweet.org

Remote work is a big fiscal hit to central cities and those losses are going to have to be distributed. New York can, and should, spare the vast majority of its people by clawing back these kind of rents. https://t.co/BcSmi7tONN https://t.co/Yyt895nDcT — PolitiTweet.org
