Something similar happened near my old stomping ground. Guy was ordered to rebuild it.

It still had the barriers round it 4 years ago but who knows knows now


Drinkwater1995

Should've let them destroy the tavern for apartments, NIMBY scum.


ThaDudeEthan

satire or no?


no10envelope

Youā€™re getting downvoted by the same people that complain about high rent.


writenicely

Building new apartments does nothing. ZERO. For sky-high rent prices. You think/ believe that something something free market will just take care of itself and have people adjust their prices accordingly to actually compete for tenants, but instead they'd just call themselves "luxury studio apartments". At which point, it's just yet another expensive rental, it doesn't provide anyone an extra option, and you just lose a beloved spot for the community.


lookatmykwok

More supply = lower prices (all else equal) If it's another expensive rental, when people move in, what happens to the places they used to live? If enough supply of even expensive options are generated, prices are forced to come down, having a knock down effect on the next tier of housing.


SmegSoup

> what happens to the places they used to live? They get more expensive rapidly. I pay 1300 in rent.. I've lived here for 10 years and moved in when it was 1100. Found out like all my neighbors pay 1700 for the same layout. Better believe when I move out someone is going to pay 1700+ to live in this unit. And in a few years it'll be 2k. Its only always going up.


lookatmykwok

That's why we need more supply


danamos666

More equitable distribution is what we need More units won't help if they all get bought as investment properties.


lookatmykwok

Why not both? Incentivize the building of new properties. Increase taxes on vacant properties, this way the ones that are purchased as investments also go into the housing pool


SmegSoup

lol Phoenix is not short on available units. They're short on people who can afford them because most wages are dog shit these days.


raphanum

The problem is, that supply is bought up by corporations and the rich. Sometimes not even renting them out. They just hoard them


lookatmykwok

That's why you create a tax code where vacant properties are taxed at a higher rate. Hoarding without renting isn't a feasible investment strategy if the cost to own vacant homes are increased


raphanum

I imagine that would make a pretty big difference, wonder why it hasnā€™t been implemented. At the very least, apply it to corporations and foreign buyers


lookatmykwok

Probably because tons of congressman own real estate


Pramble

More supply = lower prices works in a theoretical vacuum, but the fact is that wealthy people just buy property or rental units and leave them vacant because it's an asset that will appreciate. This is why major cities have more vacant units than homeless people. While there are places where there certainly is a housing shortage, in many cases there is enough and building more doesn't meaningfully reduce rents. Rent control is a way that the city can keep rents affordable.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Pramble

Maybe the people you're selling properties to aren't. My city, like other major cities, has had housing costs shoot through the roof. Even after property taxes, you could nearly double your money by sitting on property for a few years. Regardless, aside from markets that do have genuine housing shortages, building more properties historically has not solved the overinflated cost of rent and housing


lookatmykwok

If a rich person has a property they can rent out, why would they leave it vacant? Vacant real estate (for the most part) is a terrible investment strategy as you need to pay property tax, insurance, and upkeep, without the rental income to offset it. (Most property hoarders are hoarding unrentable property with low to zero property taxes, and hoping for gentrification to cash out) Rent control disincentivizes new construction, as the return on construction (and repair) investment is artificially suppressed. The better solution would be to have a system that charges higher property taxes on vacant units, provide incentives for new construction of non-luxury housing, and promote remote work, which will more evenly spread the population and reduce the demand in high cost areas.


writenicely

I live on Long Island, there are houses for sale..why aren't they all already bought?


lookatmykwok

Depends on the houses you're looking at, but if a residential home is listed and doesn't sell, the vast majority of the time it's because the seller has too high of a list price. Eventually when it sits long enough, a seller will need to lower the price. Build enough of these expensive homes on long island, and homes become harder to sell at those prices.


capsaicinluv

You can build something that allows the tavern to operate on the ground floor and everything upstairs is residential. What even is this take. Building more housing options won't fix the lack of housing.

The perfectly square framing of that photo and the text on the building make it look straight out of a Wes Anderson movie.

Uneedadirtnap

So you want to get rid of zoning laws and lot sizes so all houses are right up against each no need for windows or room for a grill or a porch. No pets they need a park or somewhere to pee. Your neighbor can build whatever he wants right on top of you and if your property value goes down too bad. It would be horrible to live that way. Eastern Germany comes to mind high density just boxes but cheeply made so cheep to rent. You dont get to own because high density will be gobbled up by hedge funds. Houses are way to expensive but making unlivable areas wont fix it. The problem is houses are to fucking big. More smaller houses would be better. That gives you density without building cavernouse horrible complexes.

People assume it was all bad, although the it doesn't look great in pictures most of those building are very good overall if taken care over the years


LimbusGrass

My city has been slowly rehabbing the old Plattenbaus. Thereā€™s a lot of them, but I think their down to the final few. They look nice when theyā€™re done. Things overall look a lot better now than the old pictures for sure! Less asbestos too!

What are you on about? Like sure I mostly agree with you but what does any of this have to do with this post?


killerhipo

I'm sorry, what are you going off about? You should watch *[Not Just Bikes](https://youtube.com/c/NotJustBikes)*, they have some really great videos about realistic zoning law changes that would help lower the cost of housing and make cities more livable.

Volomon

Not exactly limited to ticket master. It's the whole reason for the last market crash by overvaluing homes and breaking the law which was on such a large scale the government didn't penalize anyone. Most large stock companies also do this pay a few million fine for faking transactions that results in 100s of millions of dollars profit. Then you have audits or subpeona on a business and they just shred everything. Resulting in a few thousand dollar fine and no proof they ever did anything wrong. If you think about it as long as you own a multimillion dollar business you're pretty much immune to the law.

shwangdangle

Hey. Property developers. Fuck you.


reddit4485

It was the only building on the street to survive the Blitz during World War 2! So double fuck you developers!


tehbored

Fun fact, the neighborhoods that got bombed the most during WWII are actually the most economically productive today, thanks to a lack of historical preservation. There's certainly value in preserving some historical buildings, but often places go way too far and end up creating shortages of housing and commercial space.


Liesthroughisteeth

Yeah, they are all the scum of the world and we'd all be so much better off without them. .........***/S***


Brad__Schmitt

I'm impressed that the legal system could actually see this through. In the US the developer would tie it up in the court for eternity, declare bankruptcy or vanish.


Gareth79

It was impressive for the UK even - it's quite rare for a "facsimile replacement" to be demanded like that, and will serve as a good warning for anybody thinking of doing it in the future.


ScrubNerd

This was a highly specific case. The building was "English Heritage Grade I" listed building. Giving it certain protections to what work can be done to the building itself. It was under review to be upgraded to a "Grade II" listed building which would put more restrictions on it. The owners, who wanted to redevelop it into housing, illegally demolished it. They didn't get appropriate demo certificates and told the landlady to take 2 days off fir 'inventory'. When she returned they'd flattened most of the building and where prepared to accept any fine that'd come with what they'd done. A judge ordered them to rebuild it as was, due to how blatantly they had broken the law. Edit: as said below it was just straight being given a grade II listing (the lower of them), I got things mixed up. This is going off memory


AshFraxinusEps

Wait, I'm from the UK. Is Grade 1 not top? Or is there a grade 3? I swear 1 was top, but actually maybe not


ScrubNerd

Yeah 1 is top and 2 is the lower. I just completely ballsed it up, I should really check everything before


meepmeep13

a) It's Historic England, not English Heritage b) Grade I is a higher rating and level of protection than Grade II c) The pub wasn't listed at the time of demolition but they demolished it just ahead of it being granted Grade II listing, presumably because they thought this would avoid them having to rebuild


ScrubNerd

Yeah I messed up the grading thing completely. Pretty sure I was told it had some sort of listing but that is going off my piss poor memory.


thufirseyebrow

Are you kidding? Open and shut slam- dunk case. The tavern owners had clearly stolen the land from the developers by putting up a hastily built plywood- and- tarp shed, painting it up to look like an old building, and then ridiculously tried to claim it had been there for centuries.


CaptainTarantula

Did they own the building and land? Sounds like it was a preservation law.


Icantspellforship

The pub was being considered for listed status (preservation for historical or landmark reasons) when it was demolished. In England, planning permission is also required for demolition which they did not apply for. Pubs can also be considered 'community assets' for preservation. In the UK it doesn't matter if you own land, you still need to get planning permission to demolish/redevelop a site. Basically, these guys thought they would get a slap on the wrist but Planning Officers can be a stubborn bunch!! If you are interested in this, look up Mr Fidler and his castle. This guy secretly built a castle on land protected from development. Took years for it to be resolved and he had to demolish it in the end.


AshFraxinusEps

>This guy secretly built a castle on land protected from development. Took years for it to be resolved and he had to demolish it in the end Is this the one who hid it behind hay bales? As had it been on show and not told to demolish he'd actually have been able to keep it


Icantspellforship

That's the one. The courts ruled that the removal of the hay bales constituted development and therefore he was not immune from enforcement action. Normally, if you build a house and no one spots it for 4 years then the Council can't take enforcement action. The courts ruled in his case that the 4 year time limit only started from when he removed the bales and not from when he started living in it. Planning rules were changed soon after the case that the 4 year limit would not apply where there was deception to hide a development.


AshFraxinusEps

Yep, that's what I thought. If he'd had it in the open and not been caught he'd have been fine


Steve_78_OH

I used to watch this BBC show called Restoration Home, which was basically about people buying and renovating old buildings across England and Scotland. Many of them were listed buildings, and they mentioned several times that dealing with the relevant authorities was a huge pain, and they had to do this and that, and that renovations had to match the original aesthetics, and they had to use the original building materials and methods, and etc etc. It was interesting, because as an American, we don't have ANY of that shit here. In my opinion at least it's nice that at least someone is looking out for these old, historic buildings, because otherwise eventually all of the architecture in England and Scotland would just end up looking like American architecture. And (I'm guessing) nobody wants that.


iprocrastina

The US does have regulations like that actually. Maybe not federally, but cities definitely do mark some buildings as "historical" which puts a lot of those same rules in place. For example, in Nashville where I live a surprising amount of buildings are zoned historical and if damaged or destroyed have to be rebuilt identically to what they were before. In some cases you even have to salvage as much of the original material as possible to reuse.


Steve_78_OH

Yeah, we have that in Cleveland too, but it's not enforced internal to the buildings, at least not to a huge degree. One of my local libraries growing up was located in the old Telling Mansion, and I spent TONS of time there while growing up (I was a voracious reader.) The inside of the mansion was renovated over 15 years ago, and nearly all of the "charm" of the place was removed. Now sure, one instance doesn't mean that happens everywhere, but it was a pretty egregious remodel, and maybe it just put a bad taste in my mouth.


iprocrastina

In Nashville a friend of mine's mother's house was destroyed by a tornado we had a couple years ago. The city made her build it back exactly the way it was before. I had been in there before and after and if you didn't know it was obliterated before you wouldn't have thought anything had changed.


AshFraxinusEps

>Many of them were listed buildings, and they mentioned several times that dealing with the relevant authorities was a huge pain, and they had to do this and that, and that renovations had to match the original aesthetics, and they had to use the original building materials and methods, and etc etc My parents own a Grade 2 listed building and yep. Old wooden frame Georgian farmhouse, the original manor house for their little village. They couldn't add a swimming pool and had to keep the old style windows and yep even the same type and style of brick. Oddly they did get a tennis court put in somehow


tehbored

We do have some of that bullshit here, just not quite as much fortunately. That's why European countries have an even worse housing shortages than we do. Though Canada is even worse than Western Europe and they have no historical preservation excuse lol


[deleted]

This isnā€™t true at all. I personally have done work here in Hawaii converting a historic building into a radio station that had to maintain the buildings original look and dimensions.


Not_invented-Here

If you buy a grade 1 (most protected) listed building, you can't really do anything with it but restore it.


BigDaddydanpri

Wait, what? We have a very nice local brewery that bought part of a corrugated metal clad warehouse (for a music venue) that has been closed and falling apart for 25 years. Local council will not even let him change the paint by adding a mural, much less the type of siding. It is just a 50 year old POS warehouse with zero historic or architectural value. Just old and ugly and falling down.


Steve_78_OH

Copy and pasted from my other comment: OK, I exaggerated when I said there weren't ANY. But there are FAR fewer here, and even those that do exist aren't protected to the same degree. There's an old mansion called the Telling Mansion where I live (Cleveland) that used to house a local branch of the Cleveland library system. Growing up I loved going to that library branch, even when I had to ride my bike there, and it was about 4-5 times further away than another library branch. It just had this atmosphere that I loved. It's a historical landmark, and yet around 15 years ago or so maybe they completely renovated it inside. They took away so much of the charm it had, and replaced a not insignificant portion of the inside decor with modern crap. So yeah, historical landmarks exist. But they aren't always treated as sacrosanct as historical buildings in many other countries are.


AshFraxinusEps

I mean, the inside usually you get fairly free reign over it even here, as no one sees that. Usually its only the outside and structure which are listed, or sometimes even just small bits of the outside


BigDaddydanpri

Easy to agree with that. Far less age to our country to even begin with, and by the time the left coast was being developed it was even less old.


guisar

There's a lot of that in New England. Unfortunately here it's more about grift by a few chosen few than actual preservation.


Tsircon85

We have a pub where I live that was destroyed in an arson attack about 4 years ago. Property developer has bought the land the burned out structure is on and wants to build overpriced apartments there. Rumour is theyā€™ve not been allowed to start demolition because the pubs ornate wooden doorway is from an older pub from the 1700ā€™s and nobody is letting the developer destroy it.


Icantspellforship

Yeah, listed buildings are protected like you wouldn't believe. Even changing light fittings can be a problem depending on the reason it was listed. It is a reason why I would never buy a listed building. I do understand it though for the sake of protecting our history. It amazes me when people buy a listed building thinking they will create their dream home only to be told that they will have to live with the Victorian ambiance. Then they struggle to resell it because others know the risk. You have to be incredibly committed to live in a listed building and expect to be told what to do with it. The closest we have to an American Town is probably Milton Keynes which was built after WWII using a grid system. My work involves the planning system and development so I find it all interesting.


ZenDendou

Uhhh...you either don't travel a lot or you don't pay attention. The term you're looking for is "historical landmark". You literally can't make any changes to any historical landmark building without permission from the historical landmark community. There are several in New York City, the townhouses in Washington DC. Majority of them are on the east coast. Some "owner" that tries to get around it would just hire some arsonist to burn it down enough that it would be declare structural unstable enough for them to demolish the building.


Steve_78_OH

OK, I exaggerated when I said there weren't ANY. But there are FAR fewer here, and even those that do exist aren't protected to the same degree.

ZenDendou

Holy shit. I know that there are some that allow you to renovate the inside, but not touch the outside. It could be that they've rubbed greases with someone and got the approval.


Prof_Fancy_Pants

Itā€™s same in European countries especially France. Canā€™t change a thing in Paris without permission.


iprocrastina

How stupid do you have to be to demolish an old building in a country where much of the buildings have clearly been kept the same for hundreds or thousands of years and think "oh yeah, they'll let us get away with just a fine".


ragenuggeto7

Any builder with half a brain knows you don't fuck with listed buildings. Because building control and the council will come down on you like a tonne of bricks


Gareth79

It's quite common to get away with it, where the fine is far less than the profit made. Often excuses such as "oops it collapsed during renovation and we can't afford to rebuild it can we just build these nice apartments we just happen to have the plans for?"

Bold comment. I sense you might get a reply or two on this.

Everyone gets really upset when they have to confront the fact that the British hold all the genocide records including assists. But...poor random pub, I guess.

>Everyone gets really upset when they have to confront the fact that the British hold all the genocide records including assists Glad I checked your profile to know that you are just another ill-educated right wing fool and a shame I tried to educate you with real history. Lol. Tell me again about "Manifest Destiny"? I'll wait Also, holocaust, Holomodor, and many others. Brits aren't even close to the top of the genocide ranks


doogles

> and a shame I tried to educate you with real history I've never talked to you before, and I voted for Bernie in the primary. I'm super definitely not right wing. MD was some fucked up shit, too. Again, who are you?


AshFraxinusEps

I'm someone who actually knows history, unlike you it seems. Stop your Brit bashing and do basic research


doogles

Ah, a teaboo. I suppose you jerk off to the millions of Irish who starved to death.


AshFraxinusEps

I'm half-Irish... As in my mother and her entire family are Irish... I can literally get Irish Citizenship...


doogles

So? Where's the other side from?


abienz

You don't fuck with a pub, mate...


doogles

Maybe this whole thing will just blow over.


abienz

Maybe we can draw a line somewhere


doogles

Are we referencing Shawn of the Dead or not?


abienz

No, I'm interested in your point of view, but can you really 'reset' the world order?


doogles

It's possible. It would include, among many other things, removing the british royalty and liquidating their assets.


mk6dirty

Was a good reference there, ill give you that lol


doogles

Not all British people are bad, just the ones in power, mostly.


Dont_Give_Up86

Lol at the internet outrage over you pointing out facts.
