Keeping NYC Land Out of Corporate Hands

Building Local Power - A podcast by Institute for Local Self-Reliance - Thursdays

Categories:

Host Jess Del Fiacco and ILSR Co-Director Stacy Mitchell are joined by Brad Lander, who represents Brooklyn's 39th District on the New York City Council. Brad shares his perspective on how the pandemic has affected NYC neighborhoods and discusses how a city-run "land bank" would strengthen communities, boost economic development, and expand affordable housing by keeping property in the hands of non-profits and co-ops instead of for-profit developers.
