Why shouldn’t there be NYCHA housing near Lincoln Center?

Because if Lincoln Center were there first, it would be prohibitively expensive to build projects there.

But it wasn't. It was a slum area.

Never prohibitively expensive if the city / state owns the land, but I get your point.

Personally I think it’s best to have the housing throughout the city since folks in NYCHA work all over the city
