NEW: Sources say King Charles III stopped in NYC to apply for the Baffler job

[Eric Lach @ericlach]

A park back on Park Avenue? Why stop there? Let’s put a canal back along Canal Street, a wall back on Wall Street, etc.

They knock down the Atlantic Avenue twisting condo tower, rebuild Hot Bird, have it there

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

First, the tabloids reported that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding would take place in mid-June in Watch Hill, Rhode Island, where she owns a mansion. Then it was “leaked” that save-the-dates had gone out with a July 3 date and New York City location. July 3? New York City?

But then again, why not? As our newsroom’s resident Taylor Swift expert, Zach Schiffman, noted, the singer famously loves the Fourth of July, and her fiancé’s NFL training schedule resumes at the end of the month. While it might be an elaborate ruse to throw paparazzi off the trail, the city’s busiest weekend might provide the perfect storm of distractions to take the focus off America’s royal wedding.

We all have our own theories about where the wedding might happen. But what do the experts think? A number of veteran NYC wedding planners share where they think Swift and Kelce are most likely to exchange vows and where they would personally recommend: https://t.co/8bO6Jhk7Cj

They say Tirana is the Fort Lee of Albania…

[Chris Sommerfeldt @C_Sommerfeldt]

Eric Adams is a registered resident of Tirana's Admin Unit No. 2, prompting local speculation he may run for mayor of the city (incumbent's in prison). But people close to him say he's there for business, not politics.
