This is fucked up that he has to go through this. I live in his district and his office is super responsive . It's his first term on the city council and he's actually taking an interest in the district he represents. NYC would be a better place if we had more like him. I would ask the rhetorical question "what is wrong with people?", but we already have too much data on that. I'm sorry his family and staff have to put up with this.

I live in his district, too—and acriss the street from him. News of the break in spread quick and neighbors were on the sidewalk with cops.

These heinous cosplay protesters aren’t from the nabe—nor do they make any cogent points. They disrupted services at a NL NYPL branch that focuses on the sight-challenged of all ages.

Erik’s good people. Got to know him while he served Corey. And considering Corey’s breakdown and mayoral campaign left good people like Erik holding the bag for the district, he’s doing well. He’s out, he answers my calls and notes. As constituents, the wins are 2-way; we need dialogue with our CMs, CBs and Assembly members to address these ills—we have to demand action. The NYPD is largely absent.

What do you see him as having done for the district?

I agree his office is responsive, as in they will pick up the phone and talk to you or call you back if you leave a message. But then again so was Corey Johnson’s office (which is how I got to know Bottcher).
