Fox News Digital spoke to Manhattan Institute scholar John Ketcham about what Zohran Mamdani's housing plans will do the turbulent housing market in New York City.

Voters will have a chance to reshape the city’s approach to development and limit the power of the City Council to stop new affordable housing projects.

The 12 lowest-producing districts will be defined as part of the City Council’s own Fair Housing Framework. That law, championed by Speaker Adrienne Adams, will take effect in 2027 and produce data showing which council districts have built the least housing over a five-year period from 2021 to 2026.

Free buses, rent freezes and city-run grocery stores won over Democratic voters as investor class pushes back.

The outcome of the New York City mayoral race is seen as a crucial national barometer for Democratic Party dynamics after setbacks in 2024.

After his defeat at the hands of Zohran Mamdani in the Democratic Party mayoral primary in New York City, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo reset his campaign: less Trump and more affordability.

Zohran Mamdani is a left-wing daydream of a New York City mayoral candidate. He’s young—33—and proudly socialist. His campaign ads call to mind a mashup of TikTok clips and hip-hop videos. The graphics look like something from the zany 1960s Batman TV series.

Mamdani’s response is one of the most ambitious public housing proposals the city has seen in generations. His plan includes: A $100 billion investment over 10 years

Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York, said that he and his wife were going to the African country where he was born to celebrate their recent marriage.
