used to live across from that Ace around 20 years ago. drove through the neighborhood recently and it’s nothing but apartment complexes now - other than the Ace and the Snappy Dragon it felt like a different city.
New vet so this is the only facility I’ve been to, but I’ve been pretty impressed. Building looks nice, campus is massive, all the facilities you could want. Availability for appointments can be kind of rough but you can’t beat health care for free fifty.
Rent control doesn’t address the root of our housing problems: a lack of available high-density housing. NIMBY homeowners have made it illegal to build new apartment complexes and condos via strict zoning laws. They’ve artificially restricted the supply of housing in order to jack up their own property values.
If a town has 80 apartments while 100 families need housing, rent control does nothing for the 20 families who can’t find an apartment when it’s illegal to meaningfully increase the supply of housing.
Housing in Seattle will continue to be fucked until we reform our zoning laws.
