Mayor Bill de Blasio had a busy day in Harlem on Thursday where he took a victory lap following the announcement of the Universal NYC Baby Bonds.
On June 17, beginning on West 125th Street and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. Boulevard, the mayor joined in the groundbreaking of the Urban League Empowerment Center. This site will provide a 400,000-square foot space that will serve as both the headquarters for the National Urban League and include the Museum of the Urban Rights Experience, showcasing the fight for equality.
