Five Democrats in the 2025 NYC mayor’s race pitched their ideas to help the homeless, build affordable housing and improve the beleaguered New York City Housing Authority before a crowd of 2,250 watching from two different venues on Sunday night.
Metro IAF teamed with Manhattan Together, South Bronx Churches, Queens Power and East Brooklyn Congregations to organize the virtual and in-person forum for Democrats seeking to be New York City’s next mayor. The five candidates — former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams, City Comptroller Brad Lander, former City Comptroller Scott Stringer and Queens Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani — addressed a crowd of 2,000 people at the St. Paul Community Baptist Church in Brooklyn, while another 250 watched via video at Temple Sharaay Tefila, in Manhattan.
