What happened
Victoria received a federal housing bonus after leaders addressed housing and infrastructure needs. Former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio urged Melburnians to embrace high-rise, high-density living as the city's population approaches 9 million. The government had previously implemented activity centers in response to surging house prices and population growth.
