Maybe they have, but so far, it's always just been about new wards or new residences. We'll see if there is ever any change.

Personally I suspect apartment improvements might have been put on the back burner while they focused on Island Sanctuary. Some seem to feel it will be a partial solution to housing demand. Instead I think it's going to make things worse as players expect to have their Island Sanctuary on top of housing.
Speaking of that, why do people assume there will be some sort of housing related to Island Sanctuary? Was it said in an interview somewhere or is it similar to a feature in FFXI?

I didn't play FFXI, so the closest thing I could compare it to is probably WoW's garrison, except without tying it power progression or making any specific building.
