Unleashing the Latent Power of NYCHA

Ten developments. 20,000 households. The decisive voting bloc that will determine the future of New York City in the 2029 mayoral race.

Why these ten?

Together these ten developments hold more than 20,000 apartments and an estimated 40,000 residents — one of the most concentrated voting blocs in American public housing. Organized as a regional strategy map, they form our decisive 2029 coalition: Manhattan South and North, Queens West and East, Brooklyn West and East, and the Bronx North and South hubs.

The regional strategy

  • Queens West: Queensbridge, the largest development in North America (3,147 units), anchors our Long Island City organizing hub alongside Ravenswood.
  • Brooklyn West: Red Hook, Whitman, and Ingersoll form a dense waterfront cluster around the Brooklyn Army Terminal corridor.
  • Manhattan: Baruch on the Lower East Side and St. Nicholas in Central Harlem extend the campaign’s reach into the two most populous borough hubs.
  • Bronx South Vanguard: Millbrook Houses unlocks the lowest-turnout districts in the city (Voting Participation Score: 19.3/100) and links directly to Jackson Houses, home of our CCOP Chair.

How we win

Every development on this map gets a resident-led organizing team, a development captain, and a unit-by-unit voter-turnout target. When NYCHA tenants vote as a bloc, they become the decisive margin in the 2029 mayoral race.

The Turnout Proof of Concept

61% Bronx River Addition Trust Vote Turnout of eligible households voted
63% Stanley Isaacs Houses Trust Vote Turnout of heads of household voted

These recent, historic HUD-sanctioned resident votes prove that the NYCHA Party can mobilize public housing turnout that doubles the traditional 20–30% primary turnout across New York City.
