More high-rises could be coming to several California cities under housing density bill

A new bill could allow taller residential buildings in seven major California cities with transit hubs, requiring height limits of at least 150 feet and up to 450 feet in 25% of these areas. The measure aims to increase housing density to address the housing crisis. It may impose new costs on cities and would prompt a housing construction loan study if approved. The bill targets cities with populations over 400,000 and multiple transit stops.
