Newly built American apartments aren’t much better than commie blocks
What? All the new American apartments I've seen are luxury and full of nice amenities. Which I think is a problem because none of it is affordable. Even older apartments get renovated and the rent shoots up. I would love to see some practical and efficient apartments.
This is Denver so your region my differ. From what I gather new bare bones apartments only exist in extreme cost of living areas like Sanfran or NYC.
Those “luxury” apartments are glorified shoeboxes with shared patio and pool access.
I agree to some extent. They're grossly overpriced. But I don't see many shoebox options. All the layouts feel oversized and not efficient. Including the few studios. Hell a lot places have 2 parking spots for most units because of zoning laws.
I think American developers don't like to go small unless they're absolutely forced to.
