All my very best to Ben Shelton. He will take the court on Sunday at Arthur Ashe stadium. The last time a black man played in the final of the U.S. Open was Arthur Ashe himself in 1972. Like his predecessor, Ben is a class act! 👍👍

The Tribute in Light illuminates the New York City skyline tonight in honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11 – and reminds the world of the strength and unity New Yorkers showed in the days that followed.

The care that goes into maintaining the @Sept11Memorial is extraordinary. Every night, Jim Maroon and his team meticulously clean the reflecting pools so visitors can come to remember and reflect. I'm grateful for their dedication, especially as we prepare to mark 25 years since 9/11. bit.ly/46cEqzR

My favorite memory of Ms. Parton is working with Governor Bredesen, and the Head of Dolly’s Imagination Library, Dana Moore, to expand her program throughout her home state of Tennessee. She was a kind, wonderful, incredible, gracious human being. Rest in peace.

Today is my 22nd Anniversary living in NYC! ❤️ “N.Y. is my city because I have an investment I can always draw on—a bottomless investment of building up an idea of New York. So no matter what happens here, I have the rock of my dreams of it that nothing can destroy.”

How to destroy a city.
Win an election by promising half the tenants frozen rents paid for by increased rents on the rest of the city’s tenants who often live in the same buildings with their subsidized neighbors. Pit neighbor against neighbor.
Create a city hostile to developers of apartments eliminating the potential for new supply.
Freeze rents so it is cheaper not to rent the apartment than to spend the capital required to renovate and rent it, shrinking the supply further.
Place all of the increased burden on the unregulated, market-rate tenants and the owners of buildings with no market rate apartments that can’t raise rents forcing them into foreclosure and the buildings into disrepair.
That’s all you need to do.
We're going to be seeing more and more of this -- NYC rent is about to skyrocket for market-rate tenants in buildings with a mix of stabilized and market-rate units.
The mayor created a system in which neighbors are forced to subsidize neighbors -- irrespective of income.
