Not as applicable to NYC, but I still wonder if some of these urbanization and transportation trends will continue as well to do millennials start having kids in earnest. I'm on the bleeding edge of millennials myself and my commute/space/living preferences shifted strongly from a walkable downtown apartment to a suburban SFH (that's still slightly walkable) as soon as my first kid started to crawl.
I'm a bit of a curmudgeon, and I know the trends won't reverse entirely (there are many millennials already committed to the urban lifestyle) but i suspect we'll see some weak deurbanizing trends occurring again pin about 7-10 years as the center of the echo boom start families of their own.
