What should Zohran Mamdani prioritize in his 100 days in office?
As part of our "First 100 Days" series, we've spoken to experts to get their thoughts on what he needs to do starting on day one to achieve his ambitious universal child care plans, make a dent in our dire housing crisis, rein in the NYPD, fix our streets, and show he cares about the climate.
But being in charge of the best city in the world means being in charge of, well, everything else that makes the best city in the world run (or in too many cases, fixing the things that are broken).
What should he do to protect New York City's immigrant communities? How can he improve public bathroom access? What can the artist formerly known as Mr. Cardamom do to support a thriving culture scene in a city where artists are being increasingly priced out?
We went back to the experts to get their thoughts on what they think Mayor Mamdani can actually get done at the dawn of his administration.
