Mayor Adams seems indifferent to solving the city's problems. All that talk about "A City of Yes" hasn't brought about anything.

About time. The roads aren't even paved there. So blighted and under-utilized. I'll bet someone will start complaining about the displacement of tire shops and historic parking lots.

The horse was 26 years old. That's a pretty normal horse lifespan.

It's a Federal crime, so it's out of their hands. If it was up to the Bronx DA, they'd probably plead it down to a grand larceny charge with time served.

The city's rules make it super difficult to build anything. How is this so hard to solve? This is entirely an artificial crisis. Just get rid of the red tape.
