OPENING OF P.S. 487!
Happy 1st Day of School to all the Bronx students kicking off a new school year!I was very proud to join Mayor Eric Adams for the unveiling of P.S. 487 (Leaders of Excellence, Advocacy, and Discovery) — one of EIGHT new schools opening its doors in the Bronx!
With a record number of affordable housing units coming into our Borough, the necessity for new educational centers to accommodate our community’s needs has grown exponentially. These 8 new schools will not only serve as a beacon for countless generations of Bronxites, but the expanded educational amenities will guarantee that Bronx youth will no longer be left behind.
SALSA IN THE BRONX!
Salsa in the Bronx came to an exciting close thanks to an unforgettable performance by Charlie Aponte!
all of the Bronxites who came out to dance under the stars with us, and of course to our amazing co-sponsors Acacia Network and Freddy Perez Jr for another successful Summer Salsa Concert Series at Al Quiñones Playground.
WALKTHROUGH WITH NYC DCP
New York City Department of Planning Commissioner Dan Garodnick for joining me, Bronx Community Board 2, The Point CDC, and District Leader Freddy Perez Jr for a walkthrough of Hunts Point's last-mile facilities. I look forward to the continued partnership between New York City Council & DCP staff to create a special permit for these new facilities.
