Description

A 20-year-old man is in stable condition after being shot overnight in Greenwich Village as Pride festivities were wrapping up. Police are investigating. Meanwhile, congestion pricing may be on indefinite pause, but Governor Kathy Hochul is still showing her MTA pride. WNYC's Catalina Gonella has more. In other news, a ban on smartphones is likely coming to New York City public schools. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with education reporter Jessica Gould, who has been talking with educators locally and nationally about the logistics of the move. Plus, WNYC's Community Partnerships Desk regularly collaborates with the nonprofit Street Lab to highlight stories from neighborhoods across New York City. We recently set up shop at Abolitionist Place Park in Downtown Brooklyn, a newly opened green space commemorating Brooklyn's abolitionist history.
