Doctoroff led New York's dramatic and unexpected economic resurgence after the September 11 terrorist attacks. With Mayor Michael Bloomberg, he developed a remarkably ambitious five-borough economic development plan to not only recover from the attacks but to completely transform New York's economy: New neighborhoods were created. Hundreds of thousands of jobs were generated. The largest municipal affordable housing plan in American history was completed. Ground Zero was rebuilt. And New York adopted a pathbreaking sustainability plan. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e None of this was straightforward. New York has some of the most entrenched financial and political interests anywhere, and it has a population that is quick to let its public officials know exactly what is on its mind. Doctoroff's plans for a New York Olympic Games and a stadium on the West Side crashed and burned, but phoenix-like he engineered the transformation of the city anyway. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eGreater than Ever\u003c\/i\u003e is a bracing adventure--when can-do attitude dove headlong into New York's unique realpolitik of \"fuggedaboutit\" -- during which the city was changed for the better.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDan Doctoroff\u003c\/b\u003e is the founder and chief executive officer of Sidewalk Labs, an Alphabet company that works with cities to build products that address big urban problems.
