Wow, I didn’t even know about this one. Why is it the census # on NYC’s population has hovered around 🤔 8.1-8.5 million for the past 75 years😅, when to me it seems increasingly closer to a Tokyo, São Paulo, or Mexico City, etc. Given the rampant rate of unprecedented construction in NYC the past 30 years, NON-STOP!, (of which I’ve worked on numerous projects through those years), there is no way, in my mind, NYC could be any less than 10 mill, & probably closer to 12+ mill easy🤷♂️.
Todd, it is because those cities build places meant for people to live in. In New York we build luxury housing, intended for investment purposes only.
