An incredibly cooperative hooded warbler kept returning to the same spot by Tupelo Meadow in Central Park on Friday, posing quite nicely! Thank you little lemon drop! Safe travels! #springmigration #birdcpp #canonphotography #birding

Great job by our partners at @NYCACC who were back at this fire-damaged building in the Belmont section of the Bronx, and found a pet turtle.

A bit shell-shocked, but this little guy should be fine.

Humane traps with food were set, as we hope to recover additional pets inside.

DOB was in Riverside Park in Manhattan today to participate in the inaugural Construction Hike for Hope, an outodoor event organized by the American Federation for Suicide Prevention that raises awareness for suicide prevention and the importance of mental health.

Old sidewalk sheds don't see us coming 😤

After 14 years, this Harlem sidewalk shed is finally down!
First permitted back in May 23, 2012 for façade repairs, action stalled leading to this shed languishing on city streets, blocking sunlight for years.

Brooklyn’s Grand Army Plaza is ready for a transformation.

Our new proposal would expand pedestrian space, improve cyclist safety, and create stronger connections to Prospect Park.

Public workshops begin April 23.

To deliver a more affordable city at the speed that New Yorkers deserve, we must bring our environmental review regulations into the 21st century.

Albany can, and must, deliver this important change as a part of the state budget.

People are asking why they keep seeing the new Buildings Commissioner @AhmedTigani54 on the tv.

The simple answer is that last month he lost a high-stakes, winner-takes-all bet, and now he has to go in front of every camera we tell him to, no matter how tired or upset he is.

[Department of Buildings @NYC_Buildings]

We’re leaving no stone unturned in tackling the city's housing crisis!

Today DOB approved plans for NYC’s 1st underground skyscraper, a 90-story building constructed below street level to protect skyline views.

Keep your eyes peeled for more “earthscrapers” across every borough

Commissioner @AhmedTigani54 & Senior DOB staff are here at the first #RentalRipoffHearing in Downtown Brooklyn, talking with New Yorkers about their experiences.

These hearings give tenants across NYC direct one-on-one access to City officials to help us shape housing policy.

[Ahmed Tigani @AhmedTigani54]

All weekend into Monday, DOB inspectors were on site, comms teams kept New Yorkers informed, staff shifted seamlessly to virtual ops, and emergency units stood ready.

When NYC calls, we’re all in. Thank you Team DOB and our agency partners.

[Vincent Barone @vinbarone]

I have so much gratitude and appreciation for all the workers who are out in today’s storm to keep the city moving, whether they are plowing the Brooklyn Bridge or delivering lunch by bike.
