  • What More Do We Need to Know About How to Prevent and Mitigate Displacement of Low- and Moderate-Income Households from Gentrifying Neighborhoods?
    What More Do We Need to Know about How to Prevent and Mitigate Displacement of Low- and Moderate-Income Households from Gentrifying Neighborhoods? VICKI BEEN1 New York University he extent to which gentrification results in the displacement of low- and moderate-income households from neighborhoods undergoing signifi- cant change is still the subject of study and debate among urban policy researchers.2 Recent evidence suggests that, at least in areas outside low- vacancy “superstar cities”3 with intense gentrification, renters who likely Tare the most vulnerable to displacement generally do not move away from gentrifying neighborhoods at higher rates than such households move from nongentrifying areas.4 Elected officials, housing advocates, and the public, on the other hand, have no doubt that gentrification can and does cause displacement.5 There are a number of reasons the research findings on displacement may be less accu- rate or complete than reports from affected neighborhoods. First, there is considerable disagreement, especially early in the process, about which neighborhoods actually are gentrifying. Second, data tracking people’s moves to and from neighborhoods is limited because of concerns about the confidentiality of tax, social service, and other governmental data files that follow individuals over time, and because private sources of linked data, such as credit reporting bureau files, are incomplete in a variety of ways (some households don’t have credit files, for example). Third, even if residents of gentrifying neighborhoods may move no more often from gentrifying neighborhoods than similar households in other areas, they may move for different reasons. Residents of non-gentrifying neighborhoods may more often move voluntarily — seeking better neighborhoods or jobs, for example — while residents of gentrifying neighborhoods may more often move involuntarily, wanting to stay in the neighborhood but unable to afford it.

Bill de Blasio MAIA LICHTENSTEIN Office of the Mayor SECRETARY 1285 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS City Hall NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10019-6064 New York, NY 10007 Phone: (212) 373-3974 Fax: (212) 757-3990 Dear Mayor de Blasio: [email protected] On behalf of the Civil Rights Committee of the New York City Bar Association, I write to congratulate you on your election as Mayor. As you plan your upcoming term of office, the Civil Rights Committee urges you to reform the New York City Police Department’s (“NYPD”) stop- and-frisk practices. Founded in 1870, the New York City Bar Association (the “City Bar”) has a longstanding commitment to promoting reform of the law and providing service to the profession and the public. Under the City Bar’s auspices, the Civil Rights Committee works to ensure that all New Yorkers are able to benefit from New York City’s vast resources and opportunities. As you develop your agenda, the Civil Rights Committee would be honored to serve as a resource to you on this and other issues involving the civil rights and civil liberties of New Yorkers. As you are aware, the vast increase in the use of stop-and-frisk by the NYPD over the past ten years has led to justifiable concern that police officers are stopping New Yorkers based not upon individualized suspicion of criminal activity, but rather based upon illicit profiling of characteristics such as race and sexual orientation.1 The City Bar has been a consistent advocate for reform to the stop-and-frisk program.

  • Minimum Parking Requirements, Transit Proximity and Development in New York City
    McDonnell, Madar & Been 1 Minimum Parking Requirements, Transit Proximity and Development in New York City Simon McDonnell* Josiah Madar Vicki Been Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy New York University 110 West 3rd Street Room 209F New York 10012 *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT New York City policymakers are planning for a city of over 9 million residents by 2030, a large increase from today. A central goal of City officials is to accommodate this increase while simultaneously improving the City’s overall environmental performance, addressing externalities arising from traffic congestion and providing increased access to affordable housing. The requirement in the City’s zoning code that new residential construction be accompanied by a minimum number of off-street parking spaces, however, may conflict with this goal. Critics argue that parking requirements bundle the cost of unnecessary new parking with new housing, not only increasing the cost of housing, but also reducing the density at which it can be built. Facilitating car ownership by requiring parking may also lead to increases in auto-related externalities. In this research, we combine a theoretical discussion of parking requirements in New York City with a quantitative analysis of how they relate to transit and development opportunity. Using lot-level data and GIS we estimate two measures of the parking requirement for each lot and at a City, borough and neighborhood level. Our results indicate that the per unit parking requirement is, on average, lower in areas near rail transit stations, consistent with the City’s development goals. However, we also find that the required number of spaces per square foot of land area is higher, on average, in these areas.
