It's even worse during festivals as it's all backstage loading and toilets behind it.

The cube is in a great location, honestly... Not for marketlands, but that's not the cube's fault.

Affordable. Family income of $70k. It will be a different model from typical social housing.

$70k is just fine for this community, or most any community.
Hell, a lot will be single earners, and 70k is more than enough for a manageable life where you don't need to drive to work.
