Check Out What Amended "City Of Yes" Housing Plan Could Look Like

"The City Council on Thursday approved a modified version of the mayor’s sweeping zoning reform plan, City of Yes for Housing Opportunity—the culmination of a months-long and often heated public review process, as officials debated how to tackle New York’s housing shortage and rising homelessness," reported City Limits. "The plan, which included a number of changes from the original proposal and a pledged $5 billion for housing and infrastructure programs, passed by a vote of 31 councilmembers in favor and 20 against."

What will this look like in real life? "Architects have compiled what they call 'conceptual zoning illustrations' showing what could actually be built on specific lots as a result of the proposed rule changes in an effort to persuade councilmembers and community leaders who are wary of the mayor’s zoning reforms," reported WNYC's Gothamist.
