I just came back from City hall where I talked with Mayor Zoran Mamdani and his deputy mayor for housing, Lila Borzorg. We talked about the new housing plan. Block by block is the name of it. We're talking about 200,000 new truly affordable homes being built over the next 10 years. 200,000 affordable homes being preserved over that same period of time. In addition to that, there's also going to be a plan for homeowners so that first time homeowners will be able to borrow money from the city. (00:15–00:21)
