市长Eric Adams将纽约市的Elizabeth街花园指定为永久性公园园地, 阻碍即将到来的市长Zohran Mamdani在那里建造经济适用住房的计划。 Mayor Eric Adams has designated New York City’s Elizabeth Street Garden as permanent parkland, blocking incoming Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s plan to build affordable housing there. 这项决定在11月6日的信件中定稿,将该场地移交公园部,使没有州立法行动几乎不可能进行再开发。 The decision, finalized in a November 6 letter, transfers the site to the Parks Department and makes redevelopment nearly impossible without state legislative action. Adams扭转了先前对该站点123套负担得起的住房的支持,选择在曼哈顿下游另外三个地点开展大型住房项目。 Adams reversed earlier support for 123 affordable units on the site, opting instead to pursue larger housing projects at three other Lower Manhattan locations. Mamdani批评此举阻碍住房建设,特别是阻碍老年人和男女同性恋、双性恋、变性者和跨性别者的住房建设,Adams则以履行维护公共空间的承诺为辩护理由。 Mamdani criticized the move as obstructing housing efforts, especially for seniors and LGBTQ+ individuals, while Adams defended it as fulfilling commitments to preserve public space. 花园是具有历史特征和社区活动的地方,以前曾面临为发展而迁离。 The garden, home to historic features and community events, had previously faced eviction for development. 尽管未来的住房计划仍然不确定,但这一指定结束了一场有争议的辩论。 The designation ends a contentious debate, though future housing plans remain uncertain.
