I sympathize with the desire for a utopian government-run housing arrangement like this, but I think it discards the practical for the ideal...
With less restrictive zoning, more properties and building projects become financially feasible with the banks, builders, and contractors we already have. It costs the government zero money and happens automatically with the stroke of a pen.
It's much more difficult to re-engineer our entire mode of government, taxation, and housing provision than simply removing a few legal restrictions.
