Coop-City 50th Anniversary Gala




   Monday night was the 50th Anniversary of the opening of Coop-City. There were several special guests who showed up to help celebrate this half century mark of Coop-City, and Ms. Linda Berle the President of the Riverbay Board of Directors introduced Mayor Bill de Blasio. The mayor had only good things to say about Riverbay, and Coop-City, while saying that he likes coming to the Bronx especially for events such as this.

Before he left, Mayor de Blasio posed for this picture with Councilman Andy King and his daughter. On his way out I asked the mayor about a Community Benefits Agreement for the Queens community where the new Amazon site is to be located. The mayor just went past, and one of his aides got mad that I asked the question about a CBA of the mayor.
