??? What do you mean? There are plenty of new apartment buildings in those areas, not to mention the spread of density surrounding Manhattan. Downtown Brooklyn and Long Island City are practically unrecognizable compared to just a decade ago due to all of the new residential buildings, and the same can be said of Jersey City. Even Harrison, NJ is a major commuter town/transit-oriented development that has exploded in the past couple of years.

There’s lots more to do but there are countless projects in the NYC region that are filling in the gaps.

I was more thinking about Westchester County and non-NYC Long Island.

Long Island is a total trainwreck so I definitely agree with you there, they are insistent that there is no new residential being built along the LIRR corridors, it's nuts
