Me, showing up and quietly documenting everything NIMBYs have said or done to try to stop Just Home for three years.

I strongly encourage folks to testify at the City Council on September 18, in support of this project. 👇 bsky.app/profile/mich...

The City of New York needs Just Home, and it is already far behind schedule. We cannot afford to restart the process at another site when there are folks right now who have no other options.

Three years since Just Home was announced, NIMBYs are still coming up with new distractions to stop or delay the project. We must not let these cynical attempts to stop desperately needed housing work.

Just Home has faced opposition by NIMBYs who have attempted to pit the housing needs of vulnerable New Yorkers against each other - even as they opposed or downsized other housing proposals in our district.

The Subcommittee on Landmarks, Public Sitings & Dispositions is holding the Just Home hearing on September 18, starting at 10 AM, in the main City Council chambers. Please join me in support.

Can you believe it’s been three years since this wild community board hearing on Just Home?

On September 18, the NYC Council will finally hold a hearing on this project, which will provide permanent, supportive housing for the formerly incarcerated with complex medical needs.

The game is getting rained out but I can still enjoy Yankee Stadium sushi.

The mayoral primary vote in Council District 13 was close enough where I can say as a voter that ranked Zohran and not Cuomo: Every vote counts, and you're welcome.

The certified mayoral primary results show that Zohran won Council District 13 in the final round by 8 votes. This is the one Bronx council district held by a Republican.

Obviously Dexter: Resurrection will be using artistic license in this case because New York has much lower homicide rates than Miami.

My literal reaction watching a Dexter: Resurrection ad. Moving from Miami to New York is a huge upgrade.

The Chair of the New York Young Republican Club Bronx Caucus, "was given the opportunity by BronxNet to air the grievances of the ignored side of the political spectrum," so we can watch a man project his own insecurities and lament declining testosterone levels.

Trump supporters will just straight up lie about ≤$2 gas in New York City of all places.

Awful how many Bronxites are going to lose health coverage because of the Big BS Bill. It's years away, but I'm also concerned about the impact these cuts may have on Montefiore's plans to build the Advanced Care Pavillion - our community needs the full facility to be built.

Perhaps some of the signage still needs to be updated, however, to reduce possible driver confusion.

This intersection on Pierce and Bogart was nonsense, so I appreciate NYC DOT taking the initiative to closing the center as a traffic calming measure (while maintaining FDNY access) and creating new and shorter crosswalks.

Now that Overwatch has map voting, it's another way to confirm that New York City is the best.

Parks and rides: NYC plans to permanently allow e-Bikes and e-scooters on park drives, greenways NYC Parks officials announced a plan to accommodate pedestrians, e-bikes and e-scooters in public park spaces.

As a respectable e-bike user in the Bronx, cycling through parks is often the safest (and in some cases - such as biking to City Island - the only) way to traverse the borough. I appreciate for this proposed rule to permanently allow e-bikes and e-scooters in parks. www.amny.com/nyc-transit/...

Basically, yes.

Some folks have been bringing up this idea of a free shuttle bus/trolley on Morris Park Ave for years, to connect to the upcoming Morris Park Metro-North station - even though it's all covered by existing bus service.

I think it is safe to say that this primary cycle was a complete drubbing for anti-livable city, anti-affordability types. The anti-open streets, anti-bike lanes crowd seems to have a little bit of juice on X, the racist everything site, and nowhere else.

Joel R Rivera ran a relatively well-funded NIMBY campaign, including placing full page ads touting opposition to everything from rezonings to bike lanes, only to get an abysmal 5th place in the Council District 13 Democratic primary.

Congratulations to Shirley Aldebol for winning the Democratic Primary in Council District 13! She will take on the Republican incumbent in November.
