City Planners Run Amok | Hoover Institution
On these tough questions, the UWS proposal lays a goose egg. The City’s planners have lulled themselves into minimizing the effect that this one constraint (the storefront limitations) has on everything else. Price controls, minimum wage laws, and rent stabilization regulations also impose “only” a single restraint each. But aggressively applied, each can, in short order, wreck agricultural, labor, and rental markets respectively by blocking key profit-making strategies. These frontage limitations are equally dangerous. Tuyukhey never operate in isolation. Retail establishments have to worry about how to meet this requirement when faced with a myriad of other legal and business constraints.
