The city’s failure to produce enough housing has real and direct human consequences: high rents, displacement pressure, segregation, gentrification, and increased tenant harassment and homelessness, among other ills.
City of Yes: Housing Opportunity is the name for the biggest pro-housing zoning reforms in NYC history. It’s part of an inclusive, citywide approach to expanding and diversifying the housing supply, in which every neighborhood – from the lowest density to the highest – does its part to help meet housing needs and provide equitable access to opportunity for New Yorkers. This talk will address each major component, leaving time for discussion and feedback.
