The New York City real estate market is expected to take a hit as the result of ambitious legislation designed to push back against climate change

Share to twitterNew York City building owners will face steep fines for not complying with new emissions caps, with the cost of retrofits or penalties trickling down to residents in the form of assessments and increased rents.

"It's going to have a big impact on buildings in New York City, there's no doubt about that," says Daniel Avery, director of legislative affairs for the Building Owners & Managers Association of Greater New York , a trade association for commercial real estate professionals in the five boroughs that served on a task force of stakeholders run by the office of Mayor Bill de Blasio to form the basis of the legislation.

"In summary, good for the city and planet long term," Eiden says."Bad for individual unit owners short term." A big part of compliance will come from behavioral and occupant changes, such as tenants turning off lights and air conditioners when they're not in a room.Diana Sweeney, the chief operating officer of EnergyWatch LLC, which provides analytics software for energy management, says she is worried that buildings could comply by switching to electric-powered heating systems, which would have a major impact on the grid, particularly when the Indian Point nuclear power plant goes offline by 2021.

The law’s proponents say that the city, with its large amount of waterfront real estate, is obligated to invest in changes to curb climate change.

New York City Has a New Way to Teach MathNew York City is pushing a math curriculum for the coming fall that some public school teachers say doesn’t focus enough on teaching the concepts underlying the subject. god help those kids -- having just dealt with PSAT & SAT students this spring, they've been doing this crap 'concept approach' and...guess what? The kids can't do a simple percentage or ratio......the intentional dumbing down of America continues apace..... 'EdReports also said the program had too few lessons to last a full school year, forcing teachers to come up with too many of their own materials.' Yea that would be a real challenge for third graders. 😜 'It found only 28% of the district’s fourth-graders scored at or above proficient in math in 2017, slightly lower than 2009 but roughly in line with other large cities.' How can we compete with such incompetent public schools?
