  "account": "This week's reading list covers a range of topics related to buildings, infrastructure, and industrial technology. Roughly two-thirds of the articles are paywalled, so a paid subscription may be necessary for full access.\n\nIn the housing and cities section, the CEO of DR Horton, the largest homebuilder in the US, believes that the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act will not have a significant impact on housing supply or demand in the short term. A Financial Times article discusses why socialists should embrace luxury apartments, arguing that high-end developments unlock long housing chains by freeing up older properties and raising supply through a process known as filtering. While this may be a sentiment familiar to Financial Times readers, it is not necessarily a new idea.\n\nEarlier this week, it was reported that Saronic, originally intended to be a major tenant for California Forever's shipbuilding facility, has chosen to relocate their operations to Texas instead. There were claims on Twitter that California was never seriously considered, and that discussions with California Forever were merely to secure more favorable terms in Texas. The article also includes data on the fraction of housing markets in the US where prices are rising versus falling over time, and a list of US cities that once had at least 100,000 residents but no longer do.",
