2. (modified from Brueckner Exercise 2.1) In this exercise, you will analyze the supply-demand equilibrium of a city under some special simplifying assumptions about land use. The assumptions are: (i) all dwellings must contain exactly 1,000 square feet of floor space, regardless of location, and (ii) apartment complexes must contain exactly 20,000 square feet of floor space per square block of land area. These land-use restrictions, which are imposed by a zoning authority, mean that dwelling sizes and building heights...
