New York City Mayor Eric Adams today kicked off "Jobs Week" – highlighting the Adams administration's efforts to ensure job opportunities reach every borough, block, and neighborhood – by unveiling "Race for Space," a comprehensive strategy to revitalize and reimagine office space across the five boroughs and double down on a commitment to bringing New York City's economy back by creating thousands of new jobs for working-class New Yorkers.

Race for Space would attract both national and international companies to become anchor tenants – large, well-known businesses in search of large commercial space – at offices, advance an ambitious goal of 50 million square feet by end of 2025, and create thousands of jobs over the next three years.

The comprehensive strategy meets the challenge of vacant office space across the city directly with a range of bold tools to attract new and growing businesses to New York City, while also renovating existing commercial spaces. Today's announcement comes as the city, last week, celebrated breaking the all-time high jobs record for the eighth time and unemployment going down across all demographics since the start of the Adams administration.

Because people sometimes question why so much new office space is being built and proposed in the city, you have to understand the individual sectors...
