CITIUS. ALTIUS. FORTIUS.
"The people of this state have known and given the governor their trust for the last 14 years, have heard him and looked into his eyes during the darkest period . . . they have seen him get impatient with partisan politics and disingenuous attacks, and New Yorkers feel the same way. They know you must fight to change the status quo and special interests to make progress, and no one has made more progress than this governor."
–Rich Azzopardi, (Uprising Grows Over Cuomo’s Bullying and ‘Brutalist Political Theater’, 2021)
"If you want a guy who is going to forge ahead forcefully and aggressively, and sometimes too aggressively for some people's tastes, that's Governor Andrew Cuomo."
Steven M. Cohen
"At one daily briefings, I had asked retired health-care workers in New York State to volunteer to assist, and I said that we would reinstate their license as nurses and doctors if they came back to help. I also asked
health-care workers across the country who were not busy to come and help in New York. At the time, I had no realistic expectation that a significant number of people would be volunteering from across the country to come to New York in the midst of this crisis. But I was plain wrong. Amazingly, within just weeks, nearly
one hundred thousand people signed up to help. How incredible! One hundred thousand health-care professionals willing to step into dangerous, overcrowded, ill- equipped emergency rooms driven only by love. I was so touched and humbled I spoke about it in the briefing. Their actions put my contribution into perspective. I was in a comfortable office with all the equipment I needed. I didn't have to look in the eyes of a dying patient. These people, including more than thirty thousand from other states, had no obligation to show up, but they did. Imagine the size of the heart and the capacity for generosity it takes for a person from another state to willingly step into the fire of the COVID crisis in the global hot spot. It was truly humbling."

LaGuardia Airport’s new Terminal B – spacious, bright, filled with iconic public art and featuring world-class amenities – has earned its fair share of accolades from travelers and reviewers alike across the region and the country.
Now the new terminal is the focus of international acclaim.
Terminal B was selected as a finalist for the Prix Versailles Airports 2021, an annual award issued by the prestigious architecture and design organization that operates under the auspices of UNESCO.
The criteria used by the World Judges Panel to select the most beautiful airports and/or terminals include innovativeness, creativity, reflection of local heritage and energy efficiency.
LaGuardia’s Terminal B, which opened in June 2020, is one of six finalists for the 2021 airport award and the only American contender. Last year’s citation for Best Airport/Terminal went to Beijing Daxing Airport.
In addition to the Best Airport/Terminal category, two additional airports will be selected for special awards for Best Interior and Best Exterior during a ceremony at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris that is tentatively scheduled for November 2021.
When Governor Andrew Cuomo unveiled his vision six years ago for a new, unified LaGuardia Airport, his goal – shared by the Port Authority and the agency’s private partners -- was to build an airport on a par with the great new airports being developed across the world.
The redeveloped LGA is the first new airport built in the United States
in more than 25 years.
Terminal B’s inclusion as a Prix Versailles finalist is additional proof that Governor Cuomo's vision iscontinuing to become a reality for the tens of millions of passengers who pass through LaGuardia each year.
