Build 200,000 affordable units over 10 years
In progress and on pace. 6-month milestone (announced Aug 12, 2026): 12,491 affordable homes financed — annualized ~25K/yr against the 20K/yr trajectory needed to hit 200K over 10 years. Sits inside the $22B five-year capital commitment in the first Mamdani budget. Financing ≠ occupancy — watch cert-of-occupancy pipeline through 2027. [Oct 1, 2026] Admin named 12 community districts (incl. UWS/CB7, Queens + Brooklyn districts) for fast-track affordable housing review under new Charter authority; frames as "unlocking the pipeline" tied to 200K-unit pledge. Council split; genuine delivery test still ahead on units in ground.
