Chair Riley asks about homeownership and state/federal funding
He asks if HPD will build homeownership and family-sized units, and what the administration will do to secure sustained funding, noting we cannot focus only on taxing the rich or building over rail yards.
Will HPD work to build the kind of housing that New Yorkers tell us they want, like opportunities for home ownership and family-sized units, or simply prioritize the bottom line, total count of a family?

We cannot focus only on taxing the rich or building over rail yards.
The most populous city in the country needs all hands on deck opposed to solving the affordability crisis.
