Gathering a wide-ranging discussion on Twitter (aka #HousingTwitter), March 5-7 2018.  This is necessarily partly curation, because discussions on Twitter are often interwoven and branching - expressing it as a single 'thread' is interpretative. 

We'll take as starting point Matt Bruenig (lawyer, blogger, founder of People's Policy Project, peoplespolicyproject.org) commenting, in now-deleted March 5 tweet, that he has a paper coming out soon from 3P about how to address housing affordability.  Bay Area YIMBY Tommaso_Sciortino then asked Matt if had any thoughts on California's proposed Transit Zoning Bill, #SB827, and then shared a recent Vox story about it.
