we need a mulligan on The Alienist, by far the best book about this period and an unfortunately meh tv series
The foxy boxing scene from Death by Lightning makes me realize we need more shows that take place in late 19th Century New York City. It was an absolutely insane place. We just have The Knick, or maybe The Gilded Age if it got any good after the first few episodes IDK.

an unfunded IZ mandate didn't work? not only did it not work to increase affordably housing production, it almost killed it off entirely? wow
In 2018, then-Mayor Ada Colau called Barcelona’s new 30% inclusionary housing requirement for projects over 600m^2 a “paradigm shift,” making housing “a right and not a commodity.” It was supposed to produce 330 affordable units a year. The reality: just 31 affordable apartments in all these years.
Cuando se ha aprobó esta medida dije repetidamente que iba a ser un fracaso y que no construirían nada de vivienda asequible. Se ha probado en mil sitios y no funciona.
