To make that promise real, we’re launching a new data tool that reveals housing disparities across the city — helping us target solutions and hold ourselves accountable. Explore the tool, watch the teaser, and join the conversation: wherewelive.cityofnewyork.us

Fair housing means every New Yorker has the power to choose where they live. With Where We Live 2025, we’re deepening our commitment to housing justice — tackling inequality, climate risk, and affordability across every neighborhood.

Join the conversation — it’s never been more important. Bit.ly/WWL25RSVP

Today, Deputy Commissioner Lucy Joffe joins @CSNY_Events at the NY Aging Summit to explore what it takes to meet the housing & workforce needs of older NYers, through policy, partnership, & equity. We hope to see you there: events.cityandstate.com/new-york-aging…

Older New Yorkers deserve housing that reflects their diverse needs — whether they choose to age in place, relocate, live independently, or in supportive or multigenerational settings. A full range of options is essential to a dignified future.

Stop by @NYPL on 9/17 to watch Segregated by Design, an informative and engaging film based on the book “The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How our Government Segregated America” by Richard Rothstein. The short film will be screened every 20min: on.nyc.gov/46KIU0f
