‘It just feels really degrading’: New Facilities building sparks controversy among employees

Plans for the construction of a new Facilities building on Water Street are underway but have been met with resistance from some members of the department. The new building, which will be located in the old “dirt lot,” will consolidate multiple branches of Facilities into one building in order to make room for the new Athletics and Recreation Complex (ARC). Currently, Facilities is spread across three buildings: Planning, Design & Construction (PD&C) in Miller House on South Street; General Maintenance, Architectural Trades, Custodial Services, Environmental Health & Safety, and Horticulture and Grounds in the Facilities Services Building on Latham Street; and Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) Trades, located at the bottom of the steam plant near Meacham Street.

Brace for off-the-rails DSA lunacy as Albany goes bluer than ever

Rosie O’Donnell says last week’s Election Day lurch to the left could prompt her to return to New York from her self-imposed political exile in Ireland. Meanwhile, billionaire business leader, jobs producer and philanthropist John Catsimatidis says that if New York politics gets any crazier, he’s pulling out of the state entirely. Getting O’Donnell while losing Catsimatidis — that’s a lousy trade. But it could happen, because New York’s newly elected Legislature, along with a governor emboldened by her 20-point trouncing of her Republican rival , is set to pursue a slew of far-left initiatives that will leave voters poorer, less safe and less free. As Catsimatidis said last week at a Gatestone Institute lunch, the left is replacing common sense with nonsense. Say goodbye to any semblance of a two-party system in Albany: Democrats will have veto-proof majorities in both houses of the Legislature, holding 111 out of the 150 seats in the Assembly and the largest majority in the Senate since 1846. The Working Families Party, usually a mere ballot-line vehicle for left-wing candidates to grow their vote, has pulled ahead of the expiring Republican Party — with 34 endorsed candidates in the Senate and 65 in the
