Inside Hong Kong’s cage homes | Vox Exploring the Reality of Housing in Hong Kong Hong Kong, ranked as the least affordable real estate market for eight consecutive years, presents a unique housing situation that challenges the limits. In this revealing video, the harsh reality is highlighted: housing prices are 20 times the annual income, leading hundreds of thousands of residents to live in spaces as small as a parking lot. - Hong Kong: Beyond Skyscrapers Despite urban density, 75% of the land in Hong Kong remains undeveloped. Experts argue that the problem lies in inefficient land management, with only 3.7% zoned for urban housing. This scenario, combined with 50-year lease policies, drives competitive auctions and astronomical prices. - Economy and Housing: A Complicated Relationship Hong Kong, known for its low tax burden, derives 30% of its public income from land sales. This approach, while beneficial for government finances, contributes to a persistent shortage of affordable housing. Tax policies and million-dollar auctions perpetuate the crisis. - Innovation Amidst the Crisis: Faced with space constraints, local entrepreneurs like Eric Wong are devising innovative solutions, such as individual and couples' housing capsules. These proposals seek to provide more efficient and hygienic alternatives, though they are acknowledged as temporary solutions to a deeper problem. This video invites us to reflect on the challenges Hong Kong faces in housing and how these dynamics can inspire global changes. 👉 Check the video below: #RealEstate #Residential #Sustainability #Future

Founder & Head Consultant of The Hospitality Hero CEO of Savvy Hotel Group + Co-Owner/Commercial Director of Devafest + Hospitality Investor.
What a cracking video from the team Downtown in Business - so appreciated, and what a fantastic team they all are - so supportive of our business and they have made a real impact on helping us reopen and boost visitors through our doors. 🙏 Whilst we don't talk enough about tough times & the learning we go through during these periods, I'm open to talk about the tough 2022 we encountered here - the perfect storm of a drop in business & increased costs - do truly put Independent #Hospitality Venues often very quickly (aka a few months) in tough cash-flow situations, and given I've experienced this previously & didn't act fast enough, it did take us on a path to make uncomfortable, fast decisions on our future here and we did take the decision to close to the public for an internal contract, very much for the longevity of our business - we had to future-proof our investment, our lease and I don't regret this. We are in business to thrive and survive and sadly in life you have to have the highs and the lows and that's how it goes. We have come out of survival mode fighting, and at a time when the economics at least look a little brighter than they were during & after COVID and we have made some changes - No Dinner Service, Smaller Garden - in short "we learned and we progress" - as all businesses should. We are much more financial sound and we look forward to continuing our journey after a much needed injection to our beautiful property and look forward to continuing here, as we celebrate our 7 years here this month. #TeamHesketh look forward to welcoming everyone back to the Chester Townhouse! Much appreciation Frank Mckenna Izzy Grey Cristian Marcucci Julie Mogan for the kind words. #SmallBusiness #FamilyRun #Entrepreneurs #Hospitality #Life

A Friday Time Capsule: That one time, back in 2010, when Bill Sawalich and I revelled in the Urban Mayberry of Cherokee Street in St. Louis. Remarkable to see the visions of the people in this video, the same audacious visions that make up today's reality. This capsule, for me, serves as a reminder that the futures we can experience are contingent and emergent. We are not marching lock-step toward a particular outcome. We have agency in generating the possibiities for the kinds of futures we want. What might happen if you create an environment where humans are encouraged to pursue their images of the future? The answer may be found on Cherokee. From Eric Woods: "Part of what makes the fabric of Cherokee Street special is that individuality that comes with everybody's separate goals. And, when that all gets tied together, it creates a real, rich tapestry. It makes something unique." What say you to a revisiting, Bill? https://vimeo.com/12208987 Shout-outs: Minerva Lopez, Mike Glodeck, Firecracker Press, Joe Jackson, Deepak Kant Vyas, carlos dominguez, Mike Pagano, Jeff Vines, Randy Vines, STyLehouse (STL-Style.com)

Did you know that living near a farm shop boosts house prices? It is also good for the environment, economy and sense of community. It has been great to have contributed to this insightful Financial Times article debating what it means to be a local, independent business, and how many businesses in Britain are truly local.
