Mamdani took plenty of bold stances during his campaign but avoided taking one on the housing reform questions until Election Day. My latest @CrainsNewYork column looks at his maneuvering around this issue and what it could indicate about how he'll govern.

Few sites in New York have a past as contentious as P.S. 64, a derelict former school building in the East Village. I took a look at the rancorous history of the property and the latest effort to redevelop it in my latest feature for @CrainsNewYork

Rather than quietly supporting an incumbent mayor on his way to a predictable second term, many in real estate now have to choose between hoping Cuomo can pull off an upset or trying to make peace with Mamdani. My latest column for @CrainsNewYork

So, none of the Manhattan casino bids are moving forward, in case you hadn't heard. This leaves the three developers facing a straightforward but major question about their sites: what's next?

Casino has been REJECTED 4-2 SL Green CEO Marc Holliday just approached the CAC members after the vote to harangue them: “What you did here today was despicable.”
A 6-person community advisory committee is about to vote on the $5.4B Times Square casino bid by SL Green, Caesars & Roc Nation in this conference room around the corner from where it would be built. Outcome seems like a tossup; more than 2 nos would kill it. Updates to come...

Our first attempt at potty training did not go well and basically broke my brain. I spent the next few weeks coming up with excuses like the ones in my new @mcsweeneys piece for why we couldn't try it again. Happy weekend everyone!

@ZohranKMamdani as some big donors plot against Mamdani, other business groups are making nice or staying neutral — even @housingny, which reps stabilized landlords and spent $2.5M for Cuomo. "We have to be realistic here," NYAA CEO @KennyBurgosNY told @Eddie_Small: https://t.co/xeADMtpBGf

I've heard people are desperately searching the internet for takes on last night's NYC mayoral primary but can't find any, so I wrote one. My latest column for @CrainsNewYork on where the real estate industry goes from here.

"We have a lovely little downtown. The gazebo, the pink hotel, the extremely affordable tree museum ($1.50 for a ticket in this day and age is simply unbeatable)—it’s all great. But the fact is, the easiest way to get there is to drive." https://t.co/E38nDNggjF

Why waste time struggling to figure out how to watch the next season of your new favorite TV show when you could read my latest piece for @newyorkerhumor about how hard it is to figure out how to watch the next season of your new favorite TV show instead?

Subscribe to the belief that time is merely a construct, so who among us can ever really say “when” a new season of a television show will be available for viewing?

The Justice Department ordering prosecutors to drop the charges against Eric Adams seems likely to give him at least a short-term boost in support from the real estate industry. My latest column for @CrainsNewYork.
