More than likely, Hochul will mandate some affordable housing there when the state issues an RFP for the site. They have to first resolve the issue with the other site (site K) where the Affirmation Tower was proposed. That was re-issued to mandate affordable housing, and this site, which is much larger, would do the same.
When you look at Related's older site plan for the railyards, you can see a potential 3 tower development on the site, though not controlled by Related.
