Numbers are being revised constantly. Its a good step. The figures for 2015-2025 will be higher. Currently the numbers are as is, but DeBlasio is facing mounting pressure to address the housing issue. So expect the initial figure for the next 10 years to be much higher. His administration is being prudent, but developers don't see it that way. This is tentative in other words but definitely the right step.

With this, comes the next biggest issue, and one that needs to be addressed, is transit. We often boast about how its the best in the nation, but it needs an overhaul especially given the zoning in place for much of this housing is in Western Queens, Western Brooklyn, and the far off areas such as East New York.
