How do building codes shape the housing we build?

Join ULI Cincinnati, AIA Cincinnati and APA Ohio Chapter-Cincinnati Section on March 17 for a virtual Lunch & Learn exploring how building codes and policy choices influence the development of mid-density housing. The discussion will examine stair and egress requirements—including single-stair restrictions—and how thoughtful code updates could help unlock more attainable housing options like stacked flats, walk-ups, and courtyard apartments.

This fast-paced, 45-minute conversation will connect safety, design, and housing supply while offering practical insight and forward-looking policy perspectives for real estate and planning professionals.

March 17 | 11:45 AM–12:30 PM
Virtual Event

The event will focus on how building code reforms could help expand “missing middle” housing options and improve housing supply.
