In front of EVO! glad Ali's was one of Mayor Adams Stops Ali could give him a few pointers about fostering a community around a business that' not booze/tourist related in the east village
ReplyDeleteAli would make a better mayor than Adams
DeleteHe will be no different for the past two mayors, sadly. His ties to big developers will show how little he cares about housing for the non-rich.
ReplyDeleteMr. Swagger!
ReplyDeleteHe seems pretty cool to me. But he has to fire those people from Kansas that de Blasio hired who think plastic sticks and weird delayed traffic signals are good things. Those people don’t understand who NYers are. They think we’ll respect their ugly “delineators” (wtf?) and stand obediently waiting for a lightbulb to tell us when to cross the street. These are the people we left Kansas to get away from. We’re looking to Adams to tell those people to go away and, hopefully, never come back.
ReplyDelete@7:16 I agree those plastic sticks will not protect anyone, they actually cost the city more money for maintenance or replacement of those plastic sticks. Plus plastic are not good for the environment.
ReplyDelete“NYC is back! Look at the skyrocketing rents, come celebrate!”
ReplyDeleteWho is funding all of his expensive suits?
ReplyDeleteMen’s Warehouse. I guarantee it.
DeleteTake the Subway Mr Adams
ReplyDeleteEveryone is complaining Adams is a terrible mayor. But he is way better than Deblasio.
ReplyDeleteMeet the new Boss, same as the old Boss.
ReplyDeleteI voted for him, and so far, I am completely unimpressed. I see showboating and grandiosity ("My" city? Excuse me?) where I had hoped to see maturity and intelligence.
ReplyDelete@12:02pm: I *didn't* vote for him b/c he seemed like smoke & mirrors to me then, and he hasn't done anything to change my opinion of him since he got inaugurated. IMO, you can't run NYC on "get out there & go to a restaurant".
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with you re: showboating & grandiosity. I fear for NYC, b/c we lost 8 years of possible progress under de Blasio, and we don't have another 4 years to waste.
I dont particularly like this Mayor and didnt vote for him. (I feel he is a BS Artist) HOWEVER he is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000% better and more ACTIVE than the WORTHLESS Piece-of-Shit we had before him.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that vehicle wouldn't block the crosswalk if the city didn't have a friggin corporate citibike station half block lengths and restaurants shacks in all the areas to pull over now. And I mean, it's the mayor, who cares, walk around it lol
ReplyDeleteAnd there's Carlina always ready for a photo op while avoiding important meetings having to do with the destruction of East River Park, SoHo NoHo rezoning or outdoor kiosks.
ReplyDeleteGreat!
