Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the first location of a New York City-owned grocery store to be opened before the end of his first term. La Marqueta, in East Harlem, has been selected as a site for one of the mayor’s five eventual grocery store — the location is already owned by the City, NBC New York has learned. Opening a City-owned grocery store was one of Mamdani’s signature campaign pledges. “This is about ensuring that every New Yorker, regardless of income or ZIP code, has access to fresh, healthy food at a price they can afford,” Mamdani said in a statement. Mamdani announced the initiative during his Sunday evening “100 Days” address in Queens. The first of those five stores could open as early as next year. Before La Marqueta is built and opened, the City will pick an existing store location.

Waymo and Waze are teaming up to record and report potholes to transportation departments in Los Angeles in hopes of helping to improve the roads. The companies announced their partnership on Thursday as part of a joint pilot to “help cities patch their potholes,” they said in a press release. The initiative will use Waymo’s feedback systems to detect the potholes, then send that date to city and state Departments of Transportation. “The data will also be visible to Waze users in the cities where Waymo operates, keeping road users safe by alerting them as they approach a pothole,” the press release read. “Like other on-road features reportable in the Waze app, users will be able to verify the Waymo-identified potholes, increasing the data’s accuracy.” According to the news release, Waymo has already identified about 500 potholes.
