The gap between the need for affordable housing and the limited supply continues to grow rapidly across the region. This not only drives ever-increasing housing costs, but also entrenches historical patterns of segregation and inequality.
RPA works to elevate housing quality, affordability, and choice and transform the tri-state metropolitan area from one of the most segregated and least affordable regions into one of the least segregated and most affordable. We aim to restore public housing, advance accessory dwelling units (ADU) and other means of infill development, and promote walkable, mixed-use development connected to employment opportunities and mass transit.
