We were ready to walk out the door for a 430 am pick up at 415 am when we discover a 215 am email from #spiritairlines with one line "your flight has been canceled." No other details and the cab is about to arrive at our place to pick us up. We scramble trying to figure this out.

Time to reclaim our streets and our Brooklyn Bridge for people, not cars. See how the finalist teams from @van_alen and @NYCCouncil 's Brooklyn Bridge competition propose to make it happen.

Vote for your favorite by Thursday 7/30!

@travis_robert @NYC_DOT @NYCMayor E. 7th Street has looked like this pretty much since day 1. Couple of wooden barriers in splinters on the sidewalk.

Proud to co-sign this letter as a Council staffer to call for the NYC Council to pass a budget that reduces the NYPD operating budget by at least $1 billion in Fiscal Year 2021, in alignment with the demands of the #NYCBudgetJustice campaign: https://t.co/g5rCsEMjMh

A couple weeks ago I undertook my Brooklyniest endeavor yet.

Yes, it involved my bike - and fermentation - and my quest for social interaction in this strange time.

Excited to be a part of the effort to dream big about the Brooklyn Bridge as the city prepares for the next generation of users on this iconic span! #architecture #design #brooklynbridge #transportationplanning https://t.co/EjGMUaG7i1

We lost this great lady. We shared last name but were not related. New York City is going to miss Jenny Benítez. #RIP

With environmental costs of frequent flying becoming more apparent, airlines try to stay ahead of the curve - and do a little bit of CYA publicity. Check out the latest from @SonahLee @… https://t.co/M8Se7VAwUb

Lots of kids are participating in the NYC #ClimateStrike march with their parents today. #StrikeWithUs @pass_blue

A mini protest on the north side of Thurgood Marshall Courthouse #ClimateStrike #Strike4Climate #StrikeWithUs

At the NYC climate strike in Foley Square and it is packed. Cell signal is also super weak so posts will be infrequent. Awesome turnout! #ClimateStrike #StrikeWithUs

Opportunity Zones in NYC will only benefit wealthy and quickly gentrifying neighborhoods. But a few adjustments from state legislators could change that.
I am proud to have contributed to the Council's research on this not-so-opportune program.

No Cape Cod trip is complete without a clamming expedition. Bonus for clamming in winter: it’s also oyster season 😋 @ Cotuit, Massachusetts https://t.co/Tcmteb327U
