Next stop 34th Street

Last week, I was proud to welcome New Yorkers as they moved into their new apartments at Willets Point in Queens — the city’s largest affordable housing project in forty years.

Grocery prices are rising faster than wages, so we’re launching 5 municipal grocery stores with lower prices. But people can't benefit from resources they don't know about. These stores need expert branding to properly serve New Yorkers.   Submit a design proposal before June 30! grocery.nyc/brand

Today I was joined by Governor Hochul and City leaders to make clear: from the first kickoff to the final whistle and long after, our job is to keep residents and visiting fans safe, moving, and supported during every moment of this busy summer.

Amazon sets the routes, the quotas, the uniforms, the cameras — and then tells workers they don't actually work for Amazon. Every delivery worker in this city should be able to afford to live here and have their rights respected. Workers deserve better.

We’re live this evening at 7pm. See you soon.

Yesterday marked the 157th FDNY Medal Day Ceremony, honoring the firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, and officers whose courage and commitment keep New Yorkers safe every day. This year, 50 acts of extraordinary heroism and lifesaving service were recognized.

T’ruah means a shout, a battle cry for justice, a joyful noise that calls us toward collective liberation. I was honored to celebrate the work of Rabbi Jill Jacobs and T’ruah at their gala. This year’s honorees, including New York’s own Gili Getz, remind us that solidarity is a practice.

Go New York, go New York, go

Huge news for the terrible twos: 2-K applications open today at myschools.nyc!   @governor.ny.gov, Queens BP Donovan Richards, CM Rita Joseph, CM Shekar Krishnan & I celebrated with New York's Cutest in the Rockaways, where some of the first free child care seats for two-year olds will be this fall.

New York moves fast — our buses should too. The new 34th Street busway will relieve bus congestion on one of our City's busiest corridors, delivering faster, more reliable bus service and a safer, more efficient street for everyone who depends on it.

We’ve helped 223,000 New Yorkers maintain access to their SNAP benefits, but there are 40,000 New Yorkers who are still at risk of losing their food assistance. No one in the wealthiest city in the richest country on Earth should go hungry. Call 718-SNAP-NOW (718-762-7669) to protect your benefits.

The countdown to the beautiful game starts now.

The World Cup teams are warming up, and so are our affordability initiatives. We worked with @governor.ny.gov & others to secure a $25 price tag on 2,500 tickets for this weekend’s pre-World Cup ‘friendly’ matches at roadto26.com/nynj — and Sunday’s match is already sold out!

Discrimination based on gender identity or expression is illegal in New York City. Trans New Yorkers are protected by law. Our City will protect your rights, defend your humanity and stand beside you without hesitation.

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

It was wonderful to celebrate Eid-al-Adha at Gracie Mansion with so many of New York’s young people. Eid Mubarak!

New York City, we have no excuse to be bored this summer. The map at Nyc.gov/summer is full of free and affordable stuff to do -- sports, music, arts, movies, video games and more -- in every borough.   The city is your backyard. Get out there and enjoy it.

May is NYC Small Business Month, but supporting our neighborhood businesses is a year-round commitment.   Whether you're opening a barbershop, ice cream shop, bodega, or anything in between, NYC SBS is here to support you.   Call the SBS Hotline: 888-SBS-4NYC (888-727-4692)

New York City’s African communities bring life to all five boroughs, each and every day.

Today, I joined the Africa Center for their annual Africa Day celebration. It was a privilege to be surrounded by so much laughter, music, and history — and to honor these New Yorkers.

NYC, we're running 2K for 2-K. That's right: we're hosting a 2-kilometer race with New York Road Runners while signing families up for free child care for 2 year-olds. Sign up, lace up, and sign up again for 2-K starting June 2. Register to run: register.nyrr.org?event=cc912a...

Sak Pase, New York City!

I’m proud to once again join both Michaël Brun and Council Member Rita Joseph in wishing all the Haitians who call this city home a joyful Haitian Heritage Month.

And to Haiti’s national team: best of luck in the World Cup. Grenadye Alaso!

We're building 200,000 new affordable homes for New Yorkers. We're using every tool we have to fix our housing crisis. Block by Block is the boldest housing plan our City has seen this century. It is what New Yorkers have been demanding for decades. Learn more about our plan here:

We received hundreds of submissions to our 2-K jingle competition, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Cardi B helped us choose the top 5, and now it's time for New York to vote on a winner. Head to nyc.gov/jingle to pick your favorite, voting is open from now until 10pm on 6/3!

This morning we are introducing COGE — the Commission on Government Efficiency.

This Commission will find ways for our city to work smarter, faster, and more effectively for working people. 

New Yorkers deserve a city government as careful with their money as they are.

We don't need to choose between protecting tenants and building more housing. Between fighting for NYCHA residents and homeowners. Between leading with the values that got us here and addressing the housing crisis.   Block by block, we can do it all.

Young people are always told what not to do. But what should you do? Did you know that most public libraries have a Nintendo Switch to use? That parks show free movies at night? That there's a map of pickup basketball games?

Today we announced the most ambitious housing plan in our City's modern history. We're building 200,000 affordable homes. We’re overhauling code enforcement. We’re cracking down on bad landlords. We’re creating tens of thousands of good-paying jobs.

I celebrated AAPI Heritage Month by visiting Sunnyside, Queens for its first ever night market dedicated to the rich cultures of Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

From 6/11-7-19, NYers can celebrate the World Cup for $26 at restaurants across all 5 boroughs. From Little Senegal to Little Odessa, our city’s diversity is our greatest strength. Now it’s on the menu. Be part of the excitement, support small businesses, and eat up all this city has to offer.

@nycsanitation.bsky.social I’d like to report a sweep

I was honored to spend Memorial Day with New York City’s veterans, service members, and military families.

NYC: We've got a little more rain headed our way today before the weather starts to dry up. Stay safe and stay prepared.

In the wealthiest city in the richest country on Earth, it is unacceptable that so many students have been left behind.  So we’re expanding NYC Reads and NYC Solves & investing in what works: high-quality instruction, support for teachers, and a public school system that doesn’t give up on anyone.

Our new pied-à-terre tax will have the ultra-wealthy elite — those who own $5 million apartments in New York City but don’t actually live here — pay their fair share.
