The Arbitrary Lines of Zoning ft. M Nolan Gray

Published: June 17, 2022, 9:38 a.m.

Almost every major city is defined by a set of zoning regulations - a map that says exactly which types of buildings can be built in which areas, and what you're allowed to use those buildings for.\xa0 M Nolan Gray, a city planner and author of the new book 'Arbitrary Lines', joins the show to discuss zoning.\xa0 How did our modern system of zoning develop in the 20th century?\xa0 What impact does zoning have on our cities? Is zoning to blame for the housing affordability crisis?\xa0 And should we reform or abolish the systems of zoning that are holding us back?
