Museum of the City of New York. Co-sponsored by CHPC. Can Stuyvesant Town be Saved for Affordable Housing?
In the wake of recent events, including Stuyvesant Town's sale in 2006, debates over rents, and mortgage default, this event asks: what are the lessons for the future of affordable housing? Panelists include Rafael Cestero, Commissioner, New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development; The Honorable Daniel R. Garodnick, New York City Council, District 4; and CHPC's Jerilyn Perine.
In light of the recent rezoning of Astoria, we searched our archives to find books and reports that highlight the housing and planning history of the neighborhood. Take a look here at the 1969 "Plan for Queens".
