 One solution to a dearth of housing units is to build them more efficiently. Henry Grabar is a staff writer at Slate, and he joins host Krys Boyd to discuss new, pre-fabricated housing options. That includes not only mobile homes, but also single-family units and even apartment buildings. Plus, we’ll hear how builders are hoping to streamline construction to have homes up in not months, but days. His article is “The Solution to America’s Housing Crisis Might Be Built in a Factory.”
