Curtis Silwa understands that he’d have a better shot at beating Mamdani if Cuomo dropped out then the other way around.

What’s wild is that Cuomo pays smart people to advise him, so he might understand that too.

“This isn’t a story about an election. It’s a story about a *neighborhood* — a place that builds a community pantry and stops a new Amazon headquarters in its tracks. A place that plays movies on projectors under stoplights in the summer.”

Business group spokesperson Dan Monaco claims that the DOT is ignoring the community’s voices, but he fails to mention the huge community organizing that helped make this happen; we saw over a hundred people at a meet & greet at Katch (RIP) in favor of this initiative last spring.
