Living space doesn’t need to be created nearly as much as it needs to be released.
When you line it up:
churches with declining attendance
downtown corporate towers built for 5-day commutes that no longer exist
bank branches designed for a world of paper, lines, and tellers
…that’s an enormous amount of high-quality, already-built shelter just waiting for a new story.
Those buildings already have:
infrastructure
utilities
locations people actually want
structural longevity
What’s disappearing isn’t usefulness—it’s centralized purpose.
