Newly elected New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has officially stepped into Gracie Mansion, the city’s most symbolic mayoral residence. This 1799 wooden landmark, a survivor of New York’s early history, has witnessed centuries of transformation from Archibald Gracie’s riverside merchant retreat to the home of the city’s chief executive. Mamdani’s move from his Astoria apartment represents more than a change of address. It signals his commitment to tackling affordability and housing issues while ensuring security and focus as he transitions into office. WATCH
