What do communities in the New York metropolitan area need? What could the region look like in the future? How can we promote shared prosperity, health and livability, resiliency and good governance throughout the region’s 31 counties?

At the 2016 RPA Assembly last May, we asked 1,000 government, civic and business leaders about their vision for the region. This feedback is part of RPA’s fourth regional plan, A Region Transformed, to be released in 2017. Some of their responses are shown in the gallery above.

We want to hear from you, too! What does the New York region need to do to promote a sustainable, equitable and prosperous future? Tweet your ideas to @regionalplan, post them on Facebook or share them in the comments below.
