And not one billionaire has left. Literally no one left NYC.
$500 million is 8% of what NYC needs just to fund the NYC of Eric Adams. To fund the NYC Mamdani campaigned on we need at least $10 billion more.
If you want to say anything about Hochul, say she's still deliberately starving NYC. Save any praise for the orgs who've been pushing her relentlessly.
NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC.
Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.

Furious? Terrified? Disgusted? Outraged? Pissed? Yeah, we are too.
Come join us and SCREAM IT ALL OUT, seriously, scream AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS, in solitary and community and collective rage.
Exactly. And a $5 million apartment in NYC is a *very fancy* apartment. I know someone who has a $3 million apartment on the Upper East Side and it's gorgeous,well-appointed, and roomy. So spare me the whining. Lot's of the uber-upscale apartments are just deposits of laundered money by kleptocrats.

This is how I learn that second homes worth over 5 million in NYC somehow don't already have an appropriate tax surcharge
One thing I really want NYC to get to in its bike lane designs is the idea of social cycling. A parent should be able to ride next to a child. Two friends should be able to ride next to each other. A senior on an adult trike should not have to worry about blocking faster cyclists. Etc.
This reminds me of what I saw at FDR’s library regarding his accomplishments in the first 100 days.
Good for him. And for the people of NYC for having the sense to elect him.

Like, if you own a home in NYC worth more than $5m and it’s not, you know, WHERE YOU LIVE, you’re already *obscenely* under-taxed at all imaginable levels
BREAKING: Hochul will formally propose a yearly tax surcharge on second homes in NYC that are worth $5 million or more, she said on Tuesday.
I’m going to NYC tomorrow and it says it’s gonna be 85 and I’m like Lord Jesus, it hasn’t broken 50 here in days
Sightseeing and walking through NYC in this beautiful weather was such a lovely way to spend the afternoon ☺️

Image of Madonna's cleared out Instagram account, a publicity stunt that is probably related to her announcement of a "sequel" to Confessions on a Dance Floor.
Seeing Madonna dip into the mid-aughts nostalgia well for a sequel to an album that was, itself, a '75 — '85s NYC club land nostalgia play made me feel a lot of feelings, but "young" was not among them
Rumor is Godzilla is going to NYC & this is his route
Excellent!!! That tax will make a HUGE difference to NYC while likely having no impact on the wealth or quality of life of the folks paying it.
No E train service between WTC and W 4 St.
