Part 2: New York Real Estate, Simplified with Olivia Jovine & Andrew Kalish of Localize.city

 

Zoning is more than permitted uses and petitions; it’s about making the livability of neighborhood blocks better for everyone. In this episode of the AEC podcast, we spoke to urban planner Olivia Jovine and Andrew Kalish, head of strategic partnerships at Localize.city, a New York-based artificial intelligence startup that provides multiple sets of real-time, complex data together in a usable app.

They shared a fascinating background on New York City zoning and how boroughs like Brooklyn have twice-evolved to create more affordable living and work space in an otherwise inhospitable New York real estate market. Apps like Localize.city bring an immense amount of data that is typically only available in user-unfriendly formats and puts it to good and easy use.
