In a video released on the Wynn New York City website, Quinn, now CEO of the non-profit Women in Need (WIN), expressed her support for the project, framing it as a critical opportunity to address the city’s most pressing issue: homelessness, particularly among families with children.

“I am supporting Related and Wynn New York City’s bid for the Hudson Yards because it is the one that most recognizes that the biggest problem facing this city is that of homeless families with children,” Quinn said in the video. “I am ready for thousands of jobs for homeless moms working with Wynn New York City.”
