If you’re creating an efficiency through tech, you’re taking work away from somebody. 1) that’s your value prop in a nutshell, and 2) those are the people who will try to undermine you. Defines your strategy and your enemies, which always go hand in hand.

Take a look at these three examples of urban planning. All three have identical density and would provide equal intensification. Which would you prefer to live in? Why is #BurlON often told there is only one answer? Nothing in 'Places to Grow' says 'only highrises downtown'.

A recap: BDT et al paid $33m for Wrigley Building and site next door in 2011. They spend $70m rehabbing building and sell the site for $42m in 2014. Mansueto paid $255m. So they spent $103m in, got $297m out, not including rent. Not bad. shar.es/anFDQC @crainschicago
