After almost a year and still no decision how disappointing.

The city DOES need affordable housing. It just doesn’t need it in Hudson Yards. But this is a state owned site, and they want to make a show of it. I would argue that much more affordable housing is needed all over the city. But that’s another issue. Meanwhile, the state has required at least 30% affordable housing in the bids. Peebles has said his bid includes 40% affordable housing. But there is a holdup at the state level.
