DESCRIPTION:Why SB50 et al will not get us Affordable Housing.  The new trickle-down 
 housing economics: Build for the richest 30% and cross your fingers for 
 everyone else.\n\nPresenter: Michael Storper, UCLA professor of economic 
 geography, will discuss his new study on the issue, and the future of the 
 Wiener/Yimby agenda.\n\nStorper is one of the most important academics 
 challenging the notion – which oddly has become accepted dogma in the 
 mainstream media and even places like The Nation– that more 
 private-sector development will solve the urban housing crisis.\n\nHe 
 suggests that: Policies such as blanket upzoning, which will principally 
 unleash market forces that serve high income earners, are therefore likely 
 to reinforce the effects of income inequality rather than tempering them 
 … There is virtually no evidence that substantially lower costs would 
 trickle down to the lower two-thirds of households or provide quality 
 upgrading of their neighbourhoods, but it undoubtedly would enhance 
 displacement in neighbourhoods currently at the boundary of higher-income 
 inner metropolitan areas.\n\nLive broadcast on 48Hills.org.\n
