“How foolish would someone have to be to run to be the mayor of the city of New York and live in another municipality?” Adams asked, standing by his son, Jordan.Adams dialed into a pair of mayoral forums in January and February from across the Hudson, according to a POLITICO comparison of his virtual backdrop with real estate listings and floorplans of the property. Campaign adviser Evan Thies confirmed the location Wednesday, shortly after Adams’ press conference.
Adams said he used to go to New Jersey periodically on weekends to visit his partner, Tracey Collins, but skipped the cross-state trips altogether during the height of the pandemic last year, when he moved into his office in Brooklyn Borough Hall to maximize time spent working. Until Saturday, he said, he had not seen her for two months due to his hectic work schedule.
“I’ve been entering borough hall at 1 in the morning, working until 3 to 4 with my staffers who come in because they believe — and then getting up at 6:30, 7 to go to the train station,” he said. “It’s not a mystery where I am.” The accounting of his interstate travel was part of a tearful backstory Adams relayed outside his brownstone Wednesday morning. He recalled an incident from his days as an outspoken member of the NYPD when someoneduring a predawn drive — an event that spurred him to closely guard his personal life from then on.Yet at the same time, Adams and his team sought to clear up inconsistencies regarding his living arrangements by offering new or amended details compared to the day before.
Despite the attempted clarity, several pieces of information about Adams’ real estate portfolio remain unclear or inaccurately reported on government records. Questions also remain on Adams’ campaign offices. Thies said he has used space within MetroTech, an expansive office campus near Borough Hall. That also happens to be where Frank Carone — attorney to the Brooklyn Democratic Party that is unofficially supporting Adams’ campaign — has office space.
I'd deny it too, except I can't. I lived in a Fort Lee co-op for a few years in the '80s.
