Affordable housing and safe streets were the key issues discussed during a Democratic mayoral primary forum in Washington Heights on Saturday — a day that saw former Gov. Andrew Cuomo shake up the entire NYC mayoral race.
Held at the Direccion de Cultura Dominicana del Exterior in Washington Heights, the 90-minute forum saw Democratic candidates, City Comptroller Brad Lander; State Senators Jessica Ramos and Zellnor Myrie; former Assemblyman Michael Blake; and former City Comptroller Scott Stringer reply to questions regarding issues many New Yorkers have been pondering since the last city election in 2021.
