Mayor Eric Adams outlined his vision for New York City in his first State of the City address Tuesday, highlighting safety, equity, infrastructure improvements and bouncing back from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Derick Waller reports the structural remains of the gutted two-story home are expected to be demolished later Monday.
Adams said he is committed to building an equitable, inclusive recovery for all New Yorkers, one that directly addresses the longstanding inequities that were exacerbated by the pandemic. A key recommendation advanced in the report called for doubling down on investments in the burgeoning life sciences industry. To that end, Adams announced a new partnership with Taconic and DivcoWest, together with New York University, to bring new space to 455 First Avenue that will support cutting-edge research, entrepreneurial training programs, and workforce development.
