Mamdani is assembling an incredible housing team who will no doubt tell him to use his new zoning powers to finally make housing affordable in this city. He’s going to be our strongest housing mayor since Wagner.

Our Executive Director @AnnemarieGray.bsky.social on joining @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social's transition:
"Bringing down the cost of living, especially the soaring cost of rent for working New Yorkers, has been the core of your campaign and the heart of my career in housing."

"What if we make new housing illegal in 90% of the city and then build 3 blocks of Dubai" was not good housing policy

Mayor-elect Mamdani is bringing on the best, so naturally he is bringing @annemariegray.bsky.social! 🏆

So excited for Annemarie, and also so excited for what her leadership in the team means for the Mamdani administration. Housing is being taken seriously — FINALLY!!

Absolutely screaming with excitement at @annemariegray.bsky.social of @opennewyork.org being named to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's housing transition committee.

So well-earned by Annemarie & such a good sign for the Mamdani administration.

Learning that Annemarie Gray (no relation) of Open New York, NYC's YIMBY group, has been appointed to Mayor-elect Mamdani's housing transition team. This is FANTASTIC news!

In a span of barely five years, @opennewyork.org went from a band of ragtag volunteers to a professional organization driving a strong pro-housing agenda in Albany and New York City. If you aren't already involved, get involved!

“If most renters showed up in the primaries and demanded that their mayor and City Council actually do good things, we could have some pretty different outcomes”

New Yorkers just did that, electing @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social and @YesOnAffHousing.bsky.social props 2-5. Change is in the air.

Props 2-5 have given a voice to the majority of New Yorkers who want to see more housing — instead of letting a small and well-housed few dominate our housing process.

City of Yes is already working. This building now has:

“New York just reminded the country that the fight for democracy doesn’t only happen at the ballot box. Sometimes, it happens in the zoning code.”

"With this disgraceful final act, the Adams administration is once again prioritizing elite comfort over affordable homes for vulnerable elderly people. Mayor Adams's time in City Hall may be over, but this fight is not."

Adams Administration Gives Middle Finger to Mamdani (and Homeless Seniors) and Turns Elizabeth Street Garden Into Parkland
First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastro was behind the move, which will make it much harder for the new administration to build affordable housing on the site.
