New York City is experiencing a surge in residential buildings with exactly 99 units due to a new tax program. The program incentivizes developers to build just under 100 units to avoid higher worker wage requirements for larger buildings. This has led to a significant increase in filings for 99-unit buildings, impacting housing development in the city.
