Stand Up for Affordable Housing On the East Side
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.
Subject: Support a Stronger, More Inclusive East Side – Back Freedom Plaza
Dear Community Action Committee,
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.
- Over 500 affordable homes, helping to address our city's housing crisis with units that are truly within reach for local families.
- 17,000 union jobs that strengthen the local workforce and support working families.
- Nearly 5 acres of new green space, giving our community room to gather, play, and breathe—something sorely lacking in this part of Manhattan.
- Up to $150 million in equity for eligible East Side residents, ensuring that longtime neighbors can share in the project's success.
- Billions in local reinvestment, boosting small businesses, supporting community services, and creating economic momentum in the East Side community and beyond.
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 and the Community Action Committee to support Freedom Plaza and help make this vision a reality.
Thanks,
