New York State’s private-sector jobs are at their highest point in history, cities across Upstate New York are rebounding after languishing for decades, and we are restoring the promise that the next generation will be better o! than the last. The Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY) plays a crucial role in this progress. It is a valuable bridge between the State and New York’s edu- cation and health care institutions as it finances and builds the infrastructure that broadens opportunity, bolsters our middle class, and expands access to services that keep New Yorkers healthy. DASNY has proven its ability to help New York State’s communities thrive. As the nation’s leader in the municipal bond market and one of its most prominent public builders, DASNY sets the tone for sustainable, resilient construction and the participation of minority- and women-owned business enterprises. New Yorkers deserve an organization like DASNY with its focus on perform- ance and integrity. I thank the DASNY Board, its Chair, Alfonso L. Carney, Jr. and its President and CEO, Gerrard P. Bushell, for continuously answering the call of public service with dedication. I commend DASNY’s executive team and its entire sta! for their leadership and commitment to the people of New York. Sincerely, Andrew M. Cuomo, Governor State of New York D o r m i t o r y A u t h o r i t y S t a t e o f N e w Y o r k 1 The Honorable Andrew M.

Flanagan Temporary President and Majority Leader New York State Senate The Honorable Carl E. Heastie Speaker, New York State Assembly Alfonso L. Carney, Jr. Gerrard P. Bushell, Ph.D. Chair President and CEO The Honorable Je"rey D. Klein Senate Coalition Leader and Independent Dear Governor Cuomo and Distinguished Leaders, Democratic Conference Leader New York State Senate We are proud to introduce the 2017 Annual Report of the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY). This year’s report brings life to the incredible The Honorable Andrea Stewart-Cousins impact DASNY has on our clients and communities across New York State. The Democratic Conference Leader report shows how DASNY, in its 73rd year, is further enhancing its partnerships New York State Senate to create innovative, educated, healthy, resilient, and inclusive communities that can better compete on the global stage to continue to grow our economy. The Honorable Brian M. Kolb Minority Leader, New York State Assembly The 2017 DASNY Annual Report builds on improvements made last year, much like our e!ort to redirect DASNY to better meet the needs of our health The Honorable Catharine Young care and higher education clients whose sectors are undergoing rapid Chair, Senate Finance Committee change. We are telling stories as seen through our clients’ eyes and have developed a magazine-style format to bring those stories to life. The Honorable Herman D. Farrell, Jr. Chair, Assembly Ways and Means Committee These stories also tell of the changes we are making to maximize our added value to our partnerships. One valuable impact is our broadening use of a The Honorable Liz Krueger hybrid financing structure that combines tax-exempt and taxable bonds. The Ranking Minority Member hybrid structure helps meet the needs of higher education and health care Senate Finance Committee sectors as not-for-profit institutions focus more of their strategic planning on their core missions and expanded partnerships. The Honorable Bob Oaks Ranking Minority Member New York University made use of this structure when it issued through Assembly Ways and Means Committee DASNY $829 million in tax-exempt and taxable bonds in June 2016, the largest private client issuance in DASNY’s history. The structure is helping maximize the economic benefits to New York State from NYU’s investment. It enables NYU to include private uses in its capital projects, which the Univer- sity is doing at its new technology and digital arts center at 370 Jay Street in 2 A n n u a l R e p o r t 2 0 1 7 Brooklyn that graces the cover of the report.
