This week marks the opening of the Unisphere, built for the 1964 World's Fair, and sixty years later it remains an indelible landmark of the borough of Queens. For more photographs and records regarding the World's Fair, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, visit our website!

A true New York City legend, Dwight "Doc" Gooden, had his number 16 retired by the Mets yesterday at Citi Field. While most associated with the Queens club, Doc spent some time in the Bronx, winning a World Series there in 2000 to add to the 1986 title he won with the Mets.
On this day in 1839, the village of Hallett's Cove was incorporated; in a few short years, it would be renamed Astoria, Eventually it would become home to @SteinwayAndSons, and develop into one of the most diverse and vibrant neighborhoods in the country.
On this day in 1998 the Good Friday Agreementwas signed, bringing an end to over 30 years of armed conflict in the north of Ireland. New York City played a large role in the conflict, with many interlocutors from the Council and the Irish community here.
In 45 minutes, there will be an almost total solar eclipse viewable across the city! We hope you manage to safely view it, perhaps from one of our city's numerous parks and public spaces. For information on how to safely view the eclipse, see the link in our bio.
Today’s the day! Hope to see you in the Little Theatre at 6 PM!
Today in 1917, President Wilson formally requested that Congress declare war on Germany, beginning the US' involvement in World War I. Seen here in uniform, future Mayor LaGuardia would serve as a pilot in the Signal Corps in that conflict before beginning his life in politics.
Today we celebrate and uplift the voices of our transgender and gender non-conforming community members. CUNY stands in solidarity with you and will continue to create a safe and inclusive environment for all. #TransDayOfVisibility

It was a pleasure to do an oral history with former City Council Member Freddy Ferrer about his decision to vote ‘yes’ for the Gay Rights Bill in 1986. Ferrer represented neighborhoods in the central and North Bronx and like @SalAlbaneseNYC faced threats from constituents
On the 113th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, I’m humbled to receive the Vincent Maltese memorial award for my commitment to teaching about the tragedy and the aftermath. As long as there is labor exploitation, the struggle for justice continues.
Thank you @SalAlbaneseNYC for the candid oral history. Your vote for the gay rights bill in City Council in 1986 was a political risk in your district where nearly all your constituents opposed the legislation @LaGuardiaWagner appreciates your contribution to our upcoming exhibit
Enjoyed my oral history interview on my 1986 vote for the gay rights bill. Dr. Stephen Petrus, Director of LaGuardia & Wagner Archives conducted the session for the project. He’s extremely capable with an encyclopedic history of NYC.
I was contacted by LaGuardia and Wagner Archives & will participate in oral history of 1986 Gay Rights Bill & my yes vote. Quite an intense experience as I had to leave my house bc of pickets & needed a body guard for a # of days. It was most anxiety filled time as a legislator
Thanks @SalAlbaneseNYC for doing an oral history with @LaGuardiaWagner about your 'yes' vote for Gay Rights Bill in 1986 @NYCCouncil You faced intense pressure. The vote was close 21-14. We can't wait to hear you recount this dramatic moment in your life and in the city's history

So happy to see Gotham's War within a War @UNC_Press on display @NYPL_Archives where much of the research for the book was made possible by amazing archivists! Also shout out to @Hugh_Ryan and the excellent Women's House of Detention- a book buddy in this pic and in life!
At the @LaGuardiaCC community breakfast for the launch of @LaGuardiaWagner archive calendar. After the breakfast I took part in a tour of their LGBTQ+ Archives & was invited by the students to add some context to a lot of the imagery & events in their displays. Great school!
Great having @DanWiley1 from @NydiaVelazquez office stop by @LaGuardiaWagner today for an archives tour.
Fiorello LaGuardia was born in Greenwich Village #OTD in 1882. He went on to become one of NYC’s most highly regarded mayors w/his transformative policies + projects, and one of several NYC mayors from Greenwich Village. More: villagepreservation.org/2023/12/11/fio…
I was excited to tour the @LaGuardiaWagner Archives to learn about the important work they do to protect & preserve NYC history. I look forward to continuing to partner to ensure we’re leaving behind a legacy for the next generation of NYC scholars and leaders.
Happening now! @nycfuture panel with @CMJulieWon & @CMNantashaW on importance of supporting and exposing tech careers at CUNY and beyond.
