I don't think any level of Nova Scotia government is any good at housing. This development is a great example of total incompetence at both the municipal and provincial level.
A total clown show of idiocy, political cravenness, cronyism, etc. And the clown show continues with the delay for the Centre Plan, which is again countless and pointless.
Requiring small apportions of affordable housing in private developments over the long term is a far better strategy than single monolithic projects like this.
Lawen would have been nearly done this development by now, with some affordable housing units coming online. Instead, it's more incompetence and delay from the moronic City and City staff.
