New York's "housing gap" is real and it is growing. According to the most recent report on New York City housing conditions, in a good year New York's housing stock loses 14,000 to 19,000 dwelling units each year. At the same time, unlike other large eastern and Midwestern cities, New York's household population is actually growing-by 2,000 to 5,000 households per year or more. That means New York needs to add at least 20,000 dwellings to its housing stock each year just to stay "even" and twice that number to actually improve housing conditions and reduce housing prices.
