"Housing in New York City provides a much-needed, encyclopedic overview of the distinctive history of the city's housing. It combines discussion of the role the government has played in ensuring the safety of private housing, with an overview of the ways and means the government has supplemented the private sector. Katrin Anacker provides a valuable reference for New York's housing history." - Howard Husock, author of The Projects: A New History of Public Housing  "New York is often considered an outlier in housing policy, but Anacker demonstrates that New York has had an outsized influence on federal, state, and local policies throughout the country. Housing in New York City is a thoroughly researched volume that traces a complex policy history and the key players involved throughout its evolution. Anacker documents the roles that public agencies, nonprofit organizations, private actors, and reformers have played in the City's housing regulation, production, tenant protections and affordability over time. Situating New York City within broader debates in urban studies and housing policy, the book is intended for scholars, students, and practitioners interested in the governance of housing and the dynamics of policy formation in complex metropolitan contexts." - Michael Lens, author of Where the Hood At: Fifty Years of Change in Black Neighborhoods  "This text ambitiously catalogues the history of housing policies, trends, and innovations in New York City and how these have influenced city planning in North America and across the globe. Focusing on the roles of private, public, and nonprofit sectors in shaping housing policy assemblages, the book also covers a wide range of topics, including the evolution of and threats to sustainable forms of public housing, tenements, condos, coops, and rent-regulated housing. For those seeking a comprehensive overview of New York City housing policy, this book is an outstanding resource." - Rachael Woldoff, author of White Flight/Black Flight: The Dynamics of Racial Change in an American Neighborhood
