The New York City Council recently voted in favor of creating a pilot program to expand the city’s housing stock by facilitating the creation of basement apartments in East New York. This program would also aid eligible property owners with low-cost loans. While modest in its initial scope at 40 units, the program could have an impact on the city’s housing supply if it’s adopted in all five boroughs.
