A 🧵on all the call for property tax reform after 421-A was dismantled which was supposed to be the ‘Grand Compromise’ in return for ending the program which fuels MOST of NYC’s housing growth.

First up, one of 421-As biggest critics: @NYCComptroller

@kwelkernbc @MeetThePress @NBCNews @chucktodd Truly truly awful mtp. More self-fulfilling divisive drivel couched in polls. I used to be a weekly viewer but I’m done. At least it’s heartening to see how many other Americans feel the same.

…I grew up in #Crownheights affordable housing. My family moved from a 1BR (I shared a room w/my mom) to a spacious affordable 2BR.

Yes, we need far more than 35 units, but this is a step in the right direction and we should not let the perfect be the enemy of the good….

[Fifth Avenue Committee @FACbrooklyn]

We're excited to be working with a fantastic team at 737 4th Avenue to bring permanently affordable low-income apartments, neighborhood retail space, jobs for local residents, underground parking, green space, and much more to Sunset Park.

We won't settle for a bad plan either.

[Shabazz Stuart @ShabazzStuart]

Not all development is bad. Dare I say, responsible development is good.

@ProtectSunset @cmenchaca @rose_n_adams @marcelaforny @BettyYu21 @_jessicaparks @SeonaeB @nychange @sbkDSA @nycDSA @zellnor4ny I’ve been working w/developer to bring secure secure bike parking @ooneepod to this development and I think this critique is offbase.

The project is “replacing" a fast food resturant and is 25% affordable.. that’s 25 or so new affordable units for a nabe that needs them...

[Shabazz Stuart @ShabazzStuart]

@ooneepod …we can ever expect the private sector to develop affordable housing. The only alternative is the city paying for 100% the costs, which isn’t on the table rn.

Just fustraing because we have to learn how to say yes to good projects and no to bad ones…

Nuance is key.
