@VirtueofCrowds the question mike asked in response is how does harlo's graph translate to individual projects breaking ground. im equating number of projects with number of buildings--which intuitively makes sense. certs of occupancy is the closest proxy to those numbers.
@VirtueofCrowds@MikeFellman@PippengerHarlo certificate of occupancy is done at the building level. its one the last things a developer needs to get from the city before people can move in. just google what it means and you should see its a valid proxy for completions.
@VirtueofCrowds@MikeFellman@PippengerHarlo there is no zoning effect here. both of us are just using zoning as a grouping variable. thus, i dont follow how you can understand harlo's chart but not mine--they use the same format, but with different data sets. difference is his is at a unit level, mine is building level.
@VirtueofCrowds@MikeFellman@PippengerHarlo y axis = number of certificates issued by zoning type. x axis = year. i basically replicated the other bar graph but at the building level.
@MikeFellman@VirtueofCrowds@PippengerHarlo mike is right when you look at the acquisition and holding costs, especially after clearing the land. the catch will be how to finance the acquisition. if you paid for it entirely with cash, and your investors are sold equity instead of debt, it will be very advantageous.
@MikeFellman@PippengerHarlo So, the permitting data I originally cited didnt include multi-family, but I have something better for you: Behold certificates of occupancy (building-level) by permit class and year... that drop in C-105.
🚨New: Thousands of Virginia homeowners are fighting Dominion Energy’s Valley Link project that would build the most powerful transmission line in the commonwealth. Dominion Energy recently released a new route.
“No matter which route they take, it's through our property,” said Orange County resident Rebekah Henson. “To Dominion: Go away, you are taking away our home, our peace, our wonderful view. We don't want that.”
The 115 mile long 765-kilovolt electric transmission line would impact up to nine counties to power data centers in northern Virginia.
The line would end in Culpeper County at a proposed 88 acre substation where more lines are expected to branch out to reach other Northern Virginia counties.
This week, the Culpeper Board of Supervisors sent a letter to PJM urging the power grid operator not to approve the substation.
Dominion Energy told me they are only considering Culpeper County for the transmission line despite county opposition.
Several residents told me it’s unfair their homes and community might be impacted because data centers hours away need more electricity.
Imagine building your entire political brand around being California's leading LGBTQ elected official and then failing to win the endorsement of the Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club

Actual Maine voters continue to back Graham Platner:
“The Democratic party’s come up short in a lot of ways in terms of like whitewashing our candidates and being so morally elitist and kind of entitled at times. We have to be willing to get dirty”
“His baggage is nowhere near their baggage. We’re talking about people that are felons and people that take bribes”
“I really kind of think that we all have skeletons in our closet and we’ve all made mistakes especially when we’re younger”
Very clear double standard at play with Platner reporting because he is anti-zionist and anti-oligarch. For example, Newsom dated a 19 year old when he was 39 and slept with his best friend’s wife but for some reason this isn’t the subject of breathless exposes. Reporters aren’t banging down the door of all Newsom’s ex’s to dig for more dirt. It’s not considered potentially disqualifying or really considered at all.
If we had passed FDR's Economic Bill of Rights in 1944 like we should have, we would not live in the America we live in today. We would live in a vastly more just, fair, and prosperous society.
What’s that word when an American shows more loyalty to another country? You know, the one where they betray our country to help another? Benedict Arnold was one.
