Yes, yes he is. Taking advantage of rent controls not leaving owners with money for upgrades. Then force it into being condemned, to be commandeered.
Then they'll spend a bunch of taxpayer money to renovate, and in 10 yrs it'll be no different than all the other govt slums/projects in the city. Or they'll sell it cheap to one of his supporters.

Yes. Mamdami is trying to convert private apartment complexes into government housing.

That's illegal in this country. And he's only a mayor.

Seems like the Ny state supreme court would shut this down before it gets to
Scotus

Such ideas must necessarily advance incrementally...
I know he wants to hike property taxes in primarily white neighborhoods. I think he'll have to get city council support on that. Not really sure what is required to pass local taxes vs state level, etc. The council has tended to be progressive which should help his agenda... it was aligned with DeBlasio and was antagonistic with Adams, but the new Jewish lady who runs it now may be something of a foil or counter to Mamdani... though that remains to be seen.
I've also heard snippets about how if Mamdami were to succeed with his plans of higher taxes and whatever else that might force people to lose or sell real estate assets, then certain entities or groups who are aligned to his vision might be well positioned to snap them up as preferred / approved vendors or investors... something like that. And if so, this (his favored cronies taking ownership under the pretense of being non-profit orgs or similar with the publicly gracious intentions of providing low cost housing) would be a way of making it seem like he is achieving the progressive goal of getting rid of traditional private property ownership and helping the little guy when he would really just be facilitating transfer of ownership to allies.
The above point is of course just scuttlebutt and unverified. More of an interesting perspective of how he might try it than anything else at this point.
