This is an open invitation to turn NYC into a little Mejico.

No, it isn't.  It's a much needed reform, albeit not enough.  NYC needs to do away with its exclusionary zoning system as well, so that one can have mixed-used buildings as a matter of course.  As it is now, once an industry - like textiles - moves out of the city, blocks and blocks of buildings stand vacant, filled with vermin and bums, because they cannot legally be turned to another use, such as housing.

All of what you say it true, but that doesn't change the number of illegals the city will have to house, police, improve medical availability, transportation, food, educate, etc.  All this is like poop to flies for the illegals.

The illegals won't be renting the new units that will be built as a result of the reforms to the zoning laws.

Don't be a one-trick pony.  This is a good reform for NYC, regardless of the illegal immigrant issues.
