The globalist
design for micro-apartments is being championed by New York’s Mayor Michael
Bloomberg.
These “studio
and one-bedroom apartments” will be no bigger than 275 to 300 sq ft.
These tiny living spaces are smaller than currently
allowed by building regulations, according to a statement by Bloomberg’s office; however the
zoning regulations will be waived in over to construct the first of many
compact pack ‘em and stack ‘em housing model in the city-owned area of Kips
Bay.
The intention is
to construct an area in NY that accommodates restricted housing space,
eliminates car use in favor for walking and bicycling and promotes mass
transit..
Herding the
expanding population into dense areas will smaller living spaces will instill
the new class of poor and obligate their psychological transition toward
accepting the Agenda 21 megacity concept .
According to the
globalists at America 2050,
“metropolitan regions will be an interlocking economic system, shared natural
resources and ecosystems, and common transportation systems link these
population centers together.”
Bloomberg
stated: “Developing housing that matches how New Yorkers live today is critical
to the city’s continued growth, future competitiveness and long-term economic
success.”
Bloomberg has announced
this “ New Housing Marketplace Plan ” with
directives toward financing 165,000 units that are more affordable than
anything on the current market.
By 2014, these
units are expected to be competing to get New Yorkers out of their large
apartments and single-family houses and into a tiny space to maximize
functionality in a clear move toward creating Agenda 21 megacities out of
existing spaces.
ED: Can you hear the snake oil in the unctuous tones of this fabulously wealthy Jew as he sells the micro model to the chattel/cattle? Political correctness will convince us of our selfishness in wanting our own homes. Detached single housing. Yards. Space. Fresh air. How terribly selfish we will be made to feel for wasting so much of the environment on JUST US. Pack us together like rats in a barrel and you will end up with cannibalism.

David Bragdon,
director of the Office of Long-Term Planning and Sustainability asserts that:
“New Yorkers can be better served by adapting the city’s apartment models to
allow more efficient and sustainable homes.
Today’s
announcement is fulfillment of the pledge in PlaNYC, the Mayor’s long-term
sustainability strategy, to update the City’s regulations to better accommodate
the population and demographics of the future.”
.
PLaNYC 2030 is a scheme by Bloomberg, which was devised in 2007, to “prepare the
city for one million more residents” to create housing in line with Agenda 21
policies in conjunction with “over 25 City agencies to work toward the vision of
a greener, greater New York.”
The initiative includes transformation of hundreds
of acres of land into “new parkland” and micro-sized units that are built
adjacent to public transit systems.
These plans will
force New Yorkers out of their cars and into highly-dense areas where living
space is severely limited in an effort to “reduce greenhouse gas emissions 13%
below 2005 levels.”
.

A request made
by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development states that the
program called adAPT NYC is specifically aimed at the
building of smaller homes in accommodation for the growing population in NY.
Robert K. Steel,
deputy mayor for Economic Development stated:
“Under Mayor Bloomberg’s leadership, New York City continues to be a magnet for talent from around the world and around the five boroughs, and with this new model for development of affordable housing, we will help ensure that New Yorkers have more options that meet their housing needs.This innovative public-private partnership will build on the Bloomberg Administration’s track record of leveraging private-sector expertise and resources to develop quality affordable housing.”
As one, two and
three bedroom; as well as single-family homes sky-rocket in price in NY, these
small apartments are being promoted. Seventy-five of the micro-sized units will
include kitchens and bathrooms; however interior design will depend on
affordability and innovative layouts that maximize space.
City planners of
the future hope to have this concept spread across the nation; where young
“urbanites” flock to smaller living spaces that are equal to dormitory-style
living.

ED:
Everyone in their own little pod, living solo as often as not. Or perhaps this
would be like small filing cabinets for people.
.
.
Lowering prices
will attract those on fixed incomes. Officials in Manhattan, who estimate that
46.3% of households consist of a single person, are marketing these micro-units
for those who spend more time socializing outside the home.
.
.
Similar programs are slated for San Francisco where developers are currently seeking state approval for rentals as small as 150 sq ft.
These apartments
would be the size of a parking space . Under the guise of
addressing the 42% of residents in San Francisco who live alone, Patrick
Kennedy, developer who built the Berkeley bungalow, states that this
maximization of space “meets the needs of that demographic.”
Scott Wiener,
project supervisor, claims that under proposed legislation developers would be
allowed to build units with just 150 square feet of living space. It would also
require a separate kitchen, bathroom and closet for a total of 220 square feet.
“The tenement
problem was big families in very small (spaces),” Bloomberg said. “We’re not
talking about that. We’re talking about one or two people who want something
they can afford, and they don’t entertain or need big space.”
.
Bloomberg’s officials assert that this is not a scheme to warehouse the poor in NY; however what else could it be?
Kerri White,
housing advocate and director for the Urban Homesteading
Assistance Board , claims that these living conditions are
good and that “the general attitude toward space and how we use space is very
different in New York City. People are used to living in smaller quarters.”

BIG BUSINESS SELLS MICRO TO THE YOUNG GENERATION
How is this for an example of NWO soft shoe shuffle and sell? IKEA being international is a perfect vehicle for trendying up "austerity chic" as cozy. This is the soft pedaling of
Agenda 21 to the very young who are ~ "a little rebellious".
"Small ideas are about finding and using hidden spaces and choosing furniture that does more than one thing. It's about being creative, a little rebellious and doing what you dream about no matter how much or how little space you have. And we think that is a pretty big idea". ~ IKEA
