What's changing
- Highland Bridge building again. Market-rate apartment construction at the former Ford site stalled after the 2021 rent-control vote. After the May 2025 amendment permanently exempted new construction, developers re-engaged and multifamily construction restarted. More new supply nearby competes with older rentals.
