New Yorkers work hard for their housing. But restrictive zoning and other regulations too often don't allow housing to work for them. Accessory units are one important way we can let New Yorkers adapt housing to better meet their needs. #YestoHousing

“We are facing a generational housing crisis. The only solution is to build more and make it easier, not harder, for homeowners to join forces with government in addressing this crisis head on.” TY aarpny and NYC Department for the Aging Commish for this spot-on op-Ed. amny.com/opinion/aarp-i…

When I was a project manager in ⁦NYC Housing⁩’s Special Needs Housing, Amie Gross was an architect working for one of the nonprofits building supportive housing. She waited more than 10 hours to testify in support of #CityofYes zoning changes. Go Amie!

I was happy to talk to Jeanmarie Evelly of City Limits about the implications of the candidates’ announced housing agendas. So much at stake on this subject alone! (& this doesn’t even account for all the damage that would be caused by gutting HUD and other federal agencies)
