Celebrating the @NYCCouncil passing of the Midtown South Mixed Use Plan in McCaffrey Park — one of a number of public spaces due to get major investment and renovation.

Enthusiastically voted today @MTA in support of a design contract for the Interborough Express (IBX)-will take riders 14 mi. from Bay Ridge to Jackson Heights. Great opportunity for access in transit deserts, connections to existing train lines & use of existing infrastructure.

With the state's outdated FAR cap finally gone, we were able to DOUBLE the amount of housing in our proposal for Midtown South.

10,000 new homes in the heart of Manhattan — let's make it happen!

Good stuff happening in NYC. 17,000 homes coming out of office conversions already — including 1,602 (with 400+ permanently income restricted affordable) from the former Pfizer Headquarters on East 42nd Street. Enabled by City Of Yes for Housing, and a tax incentive from NY State.

We have a plan to create a more vibrant, mixed use community in Midtown South (roughly 24th to 41st Streets, 5th to 8th Ave), and it is now before the City Council.

We’re giving new meaning to work from home…or should we say, “home from work”?

More space for homes, less parking where it isn’t needed. 

With City of Yes, we’ve rolled back outdated parking mandates to tackle NYC’s housing crisis.
