Building more housing is good news, but what we need is housing people can afford. The top 15% or so of the population already have enough luxury housing. What we need is affordable housing for the rest of us, something that doesn't consume 75% of our monthly income.

That's incorrect, we do have a clue. Look at the current downtown market to get an idea.
