NEW: The NYPD admitted that it failed to properly notify CCRB about the retirement of Officer Salvatore Alongi who was involved in the 2024 shooting of Win Rozario.
“When we make a mistake, we need to acknowledge it,” PC Tisch said in a statement.

Wow- DSNY alternate side parking pilot in Prospect Heights was a failure and WON’T be extended.
ASP compliance *dropped* from 73% to 62% when they switched to 1 day/week per side!
from @CMCrystalHudson :
The 18.2% pay raises the City Council is poised to approve as soon as next week would cost the city $2.6 million this fiscal year. ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/pol…
9 of 10 NYC-DSA candidates are leading their races right now.
Only exception is Jordan Wright race, he leads DSA candidate Conrad Blackburn by about 9 points.
NY-7 candidates were out with their most prominent endorsers at the Knickerbocker Ave Puerto Rican Day Parade in Bushwick
I talked to billionaire Chris Larsen about why’s he spending $3.5M to back Alex Bores in NY-12.
“It was just really shameful what some of these AI players are doing,” he said. ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/pol…
From Met Galas to Mets games, members of the royal family have done NYC in style.
A look back at previous royal visits, with a vintage George Whipple report (c. 1995) around the 2:00 mark. ny1.com/politics/2026/04/28/…

The Mamdani administration identified spending cuts in an effort to balance the budget. But it’s a small fraction of the cuts needed and would still leave the city with a nearly $5.4 billion budget deficit.

Prominent pols remembered Ronnie Eldridge as an icon of NY politics Wednesday.
It’s possible “young people won’t know her name,” Liz Holtzman said. “But everybody who cared about politics in the 70s, the 80s and the 60s knew the name Ronnie Eldridge.” ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/pol…
Turns out Trump had a very different vision for the Sunnyside rail yard than the one Mamdani pitched him on last week.
He imagined a football stadium there for his USFL team… in 1984.

NEW: Queens state Senator Mike Gianaris won't seek reelection this year.
Gianaris is second in rank in the state Senate and has had a long career in Albany stretching back to his election to the Assembly in 2000.

At the White House, departing presidents leave a handwritten note for their successor to discover upon entering the Oval Office. In NYC, newly minted mayors stride into City Hall and find a thick stack of unpaid bills. My latest in @NYMag

Remember when NYC’s First Lady held a press conference outside Gracie Mansion to announce the Mayor cheated on her?
A trip down memory lane…

Mamdani, after meeting with Mayor Adams, cites City of Yes and trash containerization as 2 initiatives “New Yorkers deserve to have be built on, as opposed to be discarded.”
Mayor Adams just said he has meeting scheduled with Mayor-elect Mamdani today at noon.
(Though meeting couldn’t possibly start on time as Adams was speaking just a few minutes before noon at his announcement in Harlem)

.@NYCMayor says he will not endorse @ZohranKMamdani because of his affiliation with the DSA, but adds that he is in talks with @andrewcuomo, suggesting a nod could be on the horizon
“It’s not fake news. They’re memes.”
-City Council candidate Jonathan Rinaldi acknowledged/defended posting doctored news articles making it look as though he was endorsed by Cuomo, Holden, etc.
He’d previously told the Queens Daily Eagle he was hacked. ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/pol…
