State of New York – The Future of NYC with Dan Doctoroff

Brigid Bergin, Nicole Gelinas, Errol Louis and 92NY CEO Seth Pinsky

Apr 18, 2024


After the attack on the World Trade Center, many wondered if New York City could recover. But during the first decade of the 21st century, New York thrived ― it entered a period of unprecedented growth, spurred by new neighborhoods, parks, office districts, cultural facilities, and more. At the center of many of these initiatives was Dan Doctoroff, who served as Deputy Mayor for Economic Development and Rebuilding from 2002 to 2007.

Doctoroff’s impact on New York City is nothing short of extraordinary — explore the story of the role that one man played in recreating the city during one of its most transformative eras, and how his leadership in technology and policy initiatives are continuing to impact the urban landscape.

Doctoroff’s long-lasting legacy is documented in the new book The Urbanist: Dan Doctoroff and the Rise of New York, which offers an unprecedented look at the central role he played in the transformation of New York City. This book is available for purchase.
