Can Multifamily Construction Costs Be Reduced Below $100/sq.ft?

As the title states, are there ways to reduce construction costs below $100/sq.ft for small scale multifamily (10 units or less) while still building a quality product?  Quality meaning strong, dry and durable but with lower cost finishes. 

Can this be accomplished using workers who are laid off from seasonal work, or laborers who are experienced, but maybe don't want to be grinding away at high volume, quota based work?  For example, occasionally there are guys who left union work because they want don't want to travel, and they pick up odd jobs that allow them to stay close to home.
