Day of Action Social Media Toolkit - Tuesday,
10/28/24
● For decades, NYC hasn’t built enough housing because of overly restrictive
zoning rules.The housing we have built is concentrated in just a few areas.
As a result, there aren’t enough homes for New Yorkers to live in, and the
cost of housing keeps going up.
● City of Yes for Housing Opportunity is NYC’s plan to tackle this crisis. It
would update zoning so we can build a little more housing in every
neighborhood. This will give New Yorkers more housing choice and bring
costs down!
● The City Council is now reviewing the proposal, and will vote on it before
the end of the year.
● As NYC holds a day of action in support of City of Yes, use this social
media toolkit to help spread the word about why this plan is so important
to the future of NYC!
Please tag @nycplanning and @nycgov in all posts so we can help amplify, and
reach out with any questions to [email protected]!

Did you know NYC requires new
buildings, even where it isn’t needed?
#CityOfYes would lift these outdated
parking mandates so we have more
housing choice & lower housing costs!
Let’s make it happen:

Across NYC, there are modest
apartment buildings that are
IMPOSSIBLE to build today because of
restrictive zoning rules.
That doesn’t make sense – especially
during a massive housing shortage!
With #CityOfYes, we can bring these
🏠
buildings back and bring housing costs
down
NYC hasn’t built enough housing for
years. Now there's a huge housing
shortage and prices keep going up.
#CityOfYes for Housing Opportunity
would update zoning so New Yorkers
have more housing options and lower
housing costs.
A more affordable NYC is possible!
