Dana Berliner, senior attorney at the Institute for Justice and Kathryn Wylde, president & CEO of the Partnership for New York City argue the ins and outs of the policy. Then, WNYC's Matthew Schuerman outlines the mayoral candidates' positions on eminent domain in NYC.

E-Domain should be uses for circumstances where land is abandoned, detrimental to public health or safety, or for public health such as the land has become toxic and needs to be cleaned up quickly.
