NYC Housing Stories: Miguel Robles-Durán and “Jerzy”
SHARE

Miguel Robles-Durán, an urbanist and professor at the New School, is at the forefront of the housing affordability crisis in New York City. Through a series of comics commissioned by More Art, his transformative moments are depicted, shedding light on the struggles faced by artists, activists, and organizers in the city.

In the comics, Miguel’s passion for urban planning and social justice is evident. His work focuses on creating sustainable and equitable urban spaces for all residents, especially those facing housing insecurity. With a keen eye for design and a deep understanding of community needs, Miguel advocates for inclusive development that prioritizes affordable housing and community-driven solutions.

The comics showcase Miguel’s dedication to his work, as well as the challenges he faces in a city where gentrification and displacement are rampant. Despite the obstacles, he remains committed to his mission of creating a more just and equitable urban landscape for all New Yorkers.

On the other side of the spectrum is “Jerzy,” a developer whose actions directly contribute to the housing crisis. Through the comics, his character is portrayed as a symbol of greed and exploitation, profiting off the displacement of vulnerable communities. The contrast between Miguel and Jerzy highlights the stark realities of urban development in New York City and the urgent need for systemic change.

As the series unfolds, Miguel’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of grassroots activism and community engagement in shaping the future of our cities. By amplifying voices like Miguel’s and exposing the harmful practices of developers like Jerzy, the comics spark important conversations about housing justice and the need for more equitable urban planning policies.
