    If there are other cities with successful affordable housing programs, one idea might be to see if these concepts can be applied to New York City. Given space and density limitations and the difficulty of construction, enhancing access to affordable housing may need to go beyond city limits, look to strengthen accessible transportation networks to outlying areas and perhaps even consider how to improve relocation, education and employment opportunities for those who would want to leave the city for different locales — upstate cities and towns, perhaps, where housing is more accessible and less pressured by gentrification.
