The vast majority of families and residents live in multifamily housing, more specifically, 93% live in housing with 10 or more units in a 3.1 square miles radius.

Continually, Midtown East has become defined by change, yet it’s committed to being a business hub. On July 27, 2017, Crains published an article profiling the Midtown East rezoning. The article states, “A City Council subcommittee approved the long-awaited rezoning of Midtown East Thursday. The new rules will allow developers to build larger office towers than currently allowed in exchange for improvements for pedestrians and commuters. “The plan allows bigger development near subway stations all around East Midtown, and allows for density to be earned by doing transit improvements,” City Councilman Dan Garodnick said during a council hearing. “This is certainly the right place to put lots of new density near Grand Central, one of our most important regional hubs.””
