Newark, NJ is a mid-sized city near the heart of the New York Metro Area that struggles with poverty, housing affordability, and access to jobs. Working closely with the city government and civil partners, this project will support the Newark 2030 masterplanning process with data and recommendations about regulations, zoning, transportation, and density, to facilitate the creation of an abundant supply of affordable housing in neighborhoods that are well-served by transit.
