Our Priorities

The Manhattan Borough President’s office is committed to creating a more equitable, resilient, affordable, and healthy city for all New Yorkers.

The future of our borough and city will depend on our ability to support the continued recovery from the impacts of the Covid 19 pandemic. From working to address climate change and create more housing that New Yorkers can afford, to improving transportation and fighting to protect tenants facing unfair eviction, we are committed to a New York where all can thrive.

Our Initiatives

With an active presence in neighborhoods, connection to policy experts, and extensive access to all levels of city government, the MBPO is positioned to advocate for the needs of our communities by forming and advancing public policies that will enhance the quality of life of the borough. 

These MBPO Initiatives are the core focus of Borough President Levine’s agenda to improve the borough and move Manhattan into its future. Visit each page to learn how you can get involved with our work.
