Freedom Plaza is more than a new development; it's a chance to shape a fairer, more inclusive New York. Designed to meet community needs, Freedom Plaza will create 17,000 jobs, provide over 500 affordable housing units, and bring nearly 5 acres of green space to Manhattan.
The plan delivers up to $150M in equity for eligible East Side residents and channels billions in local economic reinvestment.
Freedom Plaza's operating partner, Mohegan, has long exemplified what it means to be a responsible and community-oriented economic partner. Together, providing housing that's within reach, spaces where residents can gather, and union jobs that support the local economy, Freedom Plaza is by New Yorkers, for New Yorkers.
Make your voice heard! Join over two-thirds of Manhattan residents who already support Freedom Plaza, and urge your local representatives to make this vision a reality.

To Whom It May Concern,
I'm writing as a proud New Yorker to express my support for Freedom Plaza—a transformative project that directly responds to the needs of our neighborhoods.
Freedom Plaza will build on community values of affordability and equity by creating more affordable housing, accessible open space, and reinvesting in the community itself.
Housing and JobsOver
500 affordable homes to address our city's housing crisis and
thousands of union jobs during construction and operation, to create opportunities within reach for local families.
Community Investment Up to
$150 million in equity will be made available for eligible East Side residents. Along with that, at least
$5 million per year will be reinvested in civic and social service programs. The project is expected to generate
billions in economic activity, contributing
hundreds of millions of dollars to public safety, affordable housing, and schools.
Public Space and Amenities Nearly 5 acres of new green space will give our community room to gather, play, and breathe—something sorely lacking in this part of Manhattan. A
food hall and restaurants will create economic momentum in the East Side community and beyond, while increasing local access to fresh food and dining options. Freedom Plaza has been designed with our community in mind, and its operating partner, Mohegan, has a strong record of being a responsible, community-oriented partner that uplifts and invests in local neighborhoods.
We have an opportunity to deliver housing, jobs, open space, and opportunity right here on the East Side.
I urge you to support Freedom Plaza and help make this vision a reality.
Thanks,
