That's absurd. NYC and SF don't have a vastly different income profile than other major U.S. cities, and loosened zoning laws would just lead to more gentrification and superluxury towers.
The idea that NYC or SF would be cheap if you allowed a few more 50 floor towers (developments that don't pencil out unless you're charging millions per unit) is completely delusional.
