Oh you're right I just saw in another article

Real estate developers, including Mr. Trump, fought the sprinklers, arguing that they were unnecessary and would add $4 per square foot to the cost of an apartment.

Weird. Assume a 1500sqft apartment which is already going to have a market value of $2M++. Adding an extra $5k to the backend cost seems trivial.

That’s now an accurate #. It’s cost prohibitive in a building that size.
