Micro living movement, which is being touted as a potential way to bring affordable housing to New Jersey. Erika Dani, a grad student at Rutgers' Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy. Dani, who wrote a paper on tiny homes and put together a panel on the topic for the New Jersey chapter of the American Planning Association conference, is generally regarded statewide as one of the most knowledgeable people around. Some housing directors in New Jersey are thinking that adaptive reuse of large obsolete structures -- abandoned factories, vacant schools, small office buildings -- would be the best way to build micro apartment units in urban and suburban New Jersey. Here Dani is photographed at Roebling Market in Trenton.
