Well, the railyards is a state owned property, meaning the people. So I don’t find it outrageous to ask for some affordable housing. But lets compare Related’s 4,000 units with 325 units of affordable housing to the Con Ed site proposal:
Quote:
The proposal includes 1,325 apartments, with more than 500 of them slated to be permanently affordable.

That’s more than a third of the units that would be dedicated to affordable housingon private property. I’m someone who doesn’t think you have a right to affordable housing everywhere, but if you are going to do it, public land would be best. Still, there are a lot if factors that go into it.
