Housing Shortage So far, 11 developments representing some 6,300 units have submitted notice to leave the Mitchell-Lama and Limited Dividend programs.

Thompson also suggests talks between building owners and elected officials to maintain the low-cost developments, and/or increase the production of affordable housing. The Mitchell-Lama and Limited Dividend programs created 292 housing developments totaling more than 149,000 units of affordable housing in New York City between 1928 and 1978. |
