#2Any housing that can be built is good housing for places that have a severe supply-side constraint of housing.
The only way to bring house prices down is to build build build.
I'd actually be quite trustful of a Costco apartment.

I would very, very gladly live in a Costco apartment complex above a Costco store. Being able to buy Costco rotisserie chicken, ribs, and pizza anytime? Sign me up!

#4I'm continuously impressed by Costco. Not only is it one of my favorite places to shop, but I also recently recent to the Acquired episode on Costco[0] and was super impressed by how they run their business. They've continuously been able to align their unique advantages to reenforce each other and make their advantages even stronger. I highly recommend this episode to everyone.

There is a Trader Joes with a apartment complex above it in Milpitas, CA (in the SF bay area). I've seen that in my city too but it needs to become more common.

#7Will Costco be collecting rent? The mental gymnastics are impressive. It’s not a good thing that Costco gets to expand to housing. This is just like private equity and 401k’s buying houses. People should be able to own their own housing not become lifelong renters.

Pentagon city metro is right next to a Costco. Close enough?

I would end up eating nothing but Costco hot dogs. When are they doing this in the south SFBA? Sign me up.
