Eric Adams proclaimed “New York is back” moments after he was sworn in as the city’s 110th mayor in Times Square following the New Year’s Eve ball drop.
Other major issues facing the new mayor include rising homelessness, record pedestrian deaths and an employment rate that’s double the national average.
An hour and a half before officially taking office, Adams told New Year’s Eve host Jonathan Bennett and the crowd of revelers assembled in Times Square that he was looking forward to helming the city’s “comeback” from the COVID-19 crisis.“You know, we all lived through our Pearl Harbor moments. It may be the Great Depression, the attack on Pearl Harbor; it may be COVID. But the reality is the resiliency of our city and our country, we show the entire globe what we’re made of.
“We’re unbelievable, this is an unbelievable city and trust me, we’re ready for a major comeback because this is New York.” Adams plans to get right to work. He’ll take the subway to City Hall from Brooklyn on Jan. 1, arriving at the building by 8:30 a.m. and then holding a cabinet meeting at 9:00 a.m., according to his schedule.
He is then expected to address New Yorkers, sign executive orders, lead a roll call outside the 103rd police precinct in Jamaica, Queens with NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell and take questions from the press.by police officers after they were arrested for trespassing. Both later joined to the NYPD to change it from the inside.
