For a decade, we’ve worked to bring secure bike parking to life. We built and funded a real system with private capital + advertising — and have dreamed of scaling it. But we’ve never been able to meaningfully partner with the DOT. Full story linked: medium.com/oonee/proving-…

@SquarePegDem You seem to be confused— I can help. You used the word “will” which is future tense. Typically when this word is used, it means the event in question has not happened yet. When something has not happened, you typically cannot assign blame because, well, it has not happened.

Massive demand and insufficient supply have been driving up rents in our city year over year, not the FARE Act. Rents rose over 7% last year, before the law even took effect. Also, rent is set by the market, not broker fees! These are deceitful, self-serving attacks from the landlord lobby. Their NIMBYism blocks new housing to drive up rents on the existing units they own. The FARE Act provides relief in a housing crisis they helped create.
A.J. Manaseer@AJManaseer

Last year NYC mandated that landlords must eat the cost of broker commissions. How much do these commissions typically total? One month’s rent. Or 8.3% of a year’s total rent. How much did rents rise in Manhattan over the past year? 8.2%. Funny how that works.

@joe4deadcat The nationwide protests that involved tens of millions of people and lasted for nearly two months? Jan 6 was far more deadly per capita. Not even close. Moreover Jan 6th was about storming a specific government building and attacking specific individuals.

@ShabazzStuart But nothing compared to those BLM riots right? Where police stations got overtaken, city blocks became occupied by anarchists, and 28 people got killed?

It really is incredible how the 30th St SEPTA L station looks like after the refresh. Huge change.

@ZaidJilani (Because they’re racists) That’s how you get a moratorium on refugees from Afghanistan and Haiti (and everywhere else), but white South Africans fleeing “genocide” literally have a welcoming committee at airport. Stephen Miller doesn’t hide it brother.

My main issue with the GOP and immigration is how they keep going after legal immigration and lawful immigrants, it has fascist overtones at times. But in terms of enforcement against illegal immigration, all enforcement of every law also has to be practical.

@helplessdelta I noticed that too. I don’t really believe that at all. I think TA really, really doesn’t want to take this project on.

@ycinnewyork Got it. It really wasn’t my intention to comment on the district plan here. I honestly know very little about it. I was just surprised to see 51 described as “the whitest school” because that wasn’t really my experience.

I don't either but apparently it matters to the people who advocated for the D15 Diversity Plan. DeBlasio's SDAG recommendations was that all schools should reflect the racial composition of the city/district. And D15 has ~30% white district-wide so that was the Plan's goal. It's now a bit below that -- families left. Why? Parents want the schools they want for their children, not one assigned by Central. And they don't like being called racist for that.

@SquarePegDem “Mamdani’s actions and policies *will* have similar consequences.” Okay great, you agree with me that it’s far too early to blame him for Manhattan rents either way. What was the point of your comment?

@ShabazzStuart Please stop. You don't know what you're talking about. The "cheap dunk" alludes to policies long-supported by Zo and administrative actions taken by the newbie mayor. Mamdani's actions and policies will have similar consequences.

@SquarePegDem @ycinnewyork Michael, it brings me joy to see you striving to honor the NYPost brand with your personal attacks and childish insults! Bravo 👏🏾 When I was at 51 it was about 50-55% white bc it was a magnet school…Rainbow/Ace programs drew kids boro wide. That’s far less white than nabe.

@ycinnewyork @ShabazzStuart And it was even whiter when de Blasio's and Lander's kids attended. It's a good thing Shabazz got prep school scholarships, otherwise his parents would have a good case to demand a refund. Or it was scholarship money misspent.

@ycinnewyork Okay, but I still don’t think 50%-60% white is noteworthy in a neighborhood that is 68% white?

The D15 Diversity Plan took effect in Sept 2019. As you can see, MS51's white student enrollment fell from 41% in 2019 to 25% in 2024. It was as high as 60% in 2015. I couldn't find data of what it was when you attended in 2000-2003. It wasn't just a change in racial demographics, in removing its screen admissions, test scores dropped and offers to specialized high schools from MS51 fell since 2019.

@ShabazzStuart It doesn’t make sense to say Bryant Park Corp is either “public” or “private” as a binary distinction. There’s kinda a spectrum from shopping malls to POPS to NYC contractors to NYC Parks

Lots of peeps in my replies saying that it is private bc Bryant Park Corp is not city. …but it’s managed under contract from city lol. BPC is a city contractor. That’s very different than city’s POPs program which literally stands for Privately Owned Public Space.
Shabazz Stuart@ShabazzStuart

Bryant Park isn't really "privatized." It's a public park that is operated under a maintenance agreement by the Bryant Park Corporation– a nonprofit 501 c3 that operates in collaboration with the 34th Street Partnership (the local BID).

@Divineauklet @shannonrwatts Not unusual in a primary. Obama supporters decried super delegates and HRC campaigned to the bitter end. Primaries are often very bitter. Dems seem to have forgotten this bc we don’t have many.

@ShabazzStuart @shannonrwatts You are distorting what he said. Many Dems ran in 2020 too but eventually united around Biden, whereas in 2016 Sanders’ supporters remained embittered, created the “rigged” process bs and were most certainly a factor in getting Trump elected

“‘Bernie Sanders is the reason that Donald Trump is president,’ Carville said. He argued that the Vermont Independent’s lengthy primary challenge to Clinton swayed voters in battleground states, weakening her prospects in the general election.” thehill.com/homenews/campa…

@ShabazzStuart The trash (and rats) wouldn’t be a huge “unprecedented” problem if people followed the rules and only put out the trash when they were supposed to.
