And normal housing is not a hotel. If you have people that rent a room or something and you are there you keep an eye out and make sure they behave. Can you imagine your neighboring house or appartment becoming a party flat with people that don’t care how loud they are.
If the aim is to curb overtourism and to fix the housing crisis then no, it’s still not fine.
I don’t know who you think you replied to… but I agree. More is needed.
This is a good start. Putting hundreds if not thousands of Appartments back on the market for permanent living is good. And at the same time you increase livability in neighborhoods.
Another means I’ve heard of is limiting apartment/home rentals to a 1 month minimum
Maintains a minimal open door for people who actually wanna get emersed while also redirecting all but the most lucrative properties back into local residential living.
Good. I own and use an apartment where the majority of the building is short term holiday rentals, and these people flout security, noise ordinance, facilities and are a general nuisance through and through.
This is awesome, I hope more places do this, or at least put much greater restrictions on it.
Too bad here in America, Land of the Free to pay up or go fuck yourself, this never happen outside of the occasional local town ordinance. The government gets paid taxes either way so they don’t care.
Unrelated, why does that city look like it was built in SimCity using mods?
The district you’re referring to is called Eixample (literally “extension”), which is a planned district that was built as a large scale construction project in the 19th and 20th century to expand the city and make room for more/more modern apartments.
