Homes have popped up on the National Mall - showing they can be built fast and cheap

Workers assemble a home resembling an instant log cabin on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., with the Washington Monument behind them.

Tom Perez, the former Secretary of Labor who's now senior advisor to President Biden, said housing is top of mind for the Biden administration. “When I think about the meetings that we've had at the White House recently, the issue of housing has been either the most or second-most discussed issue,” he said.The backdrop to the speeches was a bright, stylish manufactured home, what used to be known as a mobile home. The innovation? It’s a duplex.

He says one reason they’re at this event is to show that there could be a place for homes like this in more urban areas, while they continue to meet real needs elsewhere.
