Governor Hochul, who hopes to get re-elected, laid out her housing plan to keep people from leaving New York during the USA TODAY interview. She is pretending people are leaving because there aren’t enough houses for them. In reality she wants to get rid of single family homes and replace them with apartment buildings.
New York governor Hochul, who is always wrong, thinks that people are leaving New York because there’s not enough housing. She plans to build a lot more ‘housing’, claiming a dire shortage. With the enormous number of illegal aliens in New York, she wants a lot more low income housing and apartment buildings. She has demanded that every municipality meet housing growth targets. In Suffolk alone, she wants 850,000 apartments.
Thus, in the countrysides of Long Island and the Hudson Valley suburbs, we see apartment buildings being erected and zoning laws being destroyed with stacked housing. Grants are going out for this type of new housing to buy officials’ cooperation. And, coincidentally, this aligns with the World Economic Forum and UN sustainable goals.
There Is More
Prisons
She’s also closing three more prisons and castigating the workers who have been victimized by the violent prisoners. They’ve been so abused and put in so much danger that the guards went out on strike for 22 days. She fired many of the strikers.
Fracking
She won’t let those of us in New York do any fracking of our own gas but she will possibly consider piping it in from Pennsylvania. The ironic thing is it’s our gas that Pennsylvania is siphoning off and charging us more money for than if we did it ourselves. She won’t actually do it anyway. It’s only something she says to get reelected. Hochul likes to pretend she cares about our exorbitant expenses.
You dumbasses in NY state keep electing these people and then whine about what they do?
You idiots need to just stfu.
The last dummy said it was the weather. Lived in WNY my whole short 1 decade. The 4 seasons were never a problem. I like them myself.
Taxes, Crime, Cost of Living, a shit quality of Life and Political Corruption are the problem. Hochul is a corrupt imbecile.
California scrubs the air for China’s coal fired power plants, charges consumers $100 a month extra for clean air
New Yorkers just keep electing Democrats…it’s amazing.
We’re in the Hudson Valley and vote strictly R, even though most who hold office here are idiots and criminals. The D’s are batshit crazy AND criminals. Still, I wouldn’t go back to California where I lived for decades because 90% need to be locked up in an insane asylum or prison. I’m 70 and have steadily watched this country deteriorate beyond all recognition.
64 here and i totally agree. Our country has become the dumpster fire. Sad part is its the 2/3 nuts out there getting the woah is me medal. Hopefully the times are a changing back. Throw them back in the closet and lose the key.
Theres a obvious line between abject stupidity and outright dangerious and distructive incompatence. Hochul…who voted for this moron?
i hate to be the spelling Nazi in the room but …spell check is still a thing ..
Then don,t be. Even thru a couple misspells we both understood the post.
Can forgive ‘posters’…usually in a rush and do not pay attention to or do not have ‘spell check’.Editors are another ‘story’ however…
democrats ruin everything.
It would be a shame if something happened to her. Darn shame, I tell you.
She is a sociopath psychotic evil and wicked bitch, the daughter of Satan.
Port Covington in Baltimore, Maryland, sometimes called a “billion-dollar ghost town.” This area, near the Under Armour headquarters, was envisioned as a massive urban redevelopment project with luxury apartments, office spaces, retail, and a marina. Despite significant investment—over $650 million from firms like Sagamore Development and Goldman Sachs—the project stalled, leaving large swaths of the 235-acre site empty or underutilized.
Launched with ambitious plans in 2016, Port Covington aimed to create a vibrant mini-city with 14,000 residences and millions of square feet of commercial space. However, economic challenges, including high interest rates and a post-COVID shift away from office demand, halted progress. By 2025, much of the site remained a mix of vacant lots, half-built structures, and a few completed buildings, like the Baltimore Peninsula, which houses some businesses but lacks the bustling community promised. Local sentiment, as seen in posts on X, describes it as a “ghost town” due to the absence of residents and activity despite the infrastructure.
The Hasidics are taking over Rockland and Orange Counties. It’s OVER for property values there.
Guess you better get your ass out of there quick!
AS a petroleum engineer, I can assure you that Pennsylvania is not siphoning off New York’s gas. Let’s get real here!
Argument from authority. Dumbass.
Maybe a house will fall on her..after all, she is the wicked witch of the east!
Soviet style apartment blocks is her vision
She’s just another government funded criminal.
Wow whatta dupa!
Move on up, to the new ghettos in the sky!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The government never has built a successful housing project. Hochul sure cannot.
It’s a way for her to spend more money, maybe house illegals. We know it will be a loss for taxpayers.
A little off topic but the roads in NY are some of the worst I’ve ever driven. It’s akin to riding on the moon. Hochul is spending tax dollars on funding new apartment dwellings and neglecting the highways. Patchwork just doesn’t do the trick anymore.
Ever been to PA?
It’s been a few years. But one can assume that any democrat run state is having similar issues and being run into the ground. I’d love to send Hochul the bill next time I need my struts replaced.
Or OK
