Will a new plan to build 10,000 homes in midtown Manhattan change NYC entirely?
Briefly

City planners have proposed a major rezoning effort in midtown Manhattan, targeting a 42-block area near Penn Station to build 10,000 new apartments. This initiative is part of Mayor Eric Adams' "Manhattan Plan" to create a mixed-use neighborhood that operates 24/7, promoting public spaces and affordable living. The project aims to revitalize an area impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and draw inspiration from the successful residential developments in the Financial District post-9/11, though it seeks to include affordable housing unlike previous efforts.
In midtown South, we are building the neighborhoods of tomorrow with vibrant 24/7 space, affordable housing, and inclusive, dynamic public realm opportunities.
Whether, when and how, exactly, the plan will be brought to completion is yet to be seen, but we're sure the genetic makeup of the city will be completely altered by it.
