| Mayor Bill de Blasio on Wednesday vowed to lobby Albany to pass a vacancy tax that would penalize landlords who leave shopfronts empty.
“It feels to me as a New Yorker…it used to be there were some storefronts vacant – and for a limited period of time – and now you have lots of storefronts vacant for years. And that’s a blight on neighborhoods,” the mayor said at an unrelated City Hall press conference.
“It also hurts retailers — especially newer retailers — because those properties being made available at a fair price would help retailers to start up. It’s an artificial attempt to jack up the rents by taking properties off the market.”
