in his 1900 speech to the new york architect said, new york city has one got the got of money. nothing has change in a 100 years. new york city trade, my money, but ambition. we want to build this. we want to build this. but how do you with, if you build a private skyscraper for your client? how do you contribute something to the city? you have to make some gesture to the public like well worth building. i mean, they spent a ton of money on the coupon, on the, on the spire of woolworth, which was mister woodward's office. after all, it was a private office of a millionaire. but it's something glorious it's, it's, it's, it's like a church. it represents ration ah chrysler building has that incredible sort of needle that was put on to it at the very end. so i think there's a lot of, he said that within the private world of money there was an ambition to, to add a civic dimension to it. i think that's part of what makes new york still a very, very interesting city, as opposed to many other cities that have a lot of tall buildings. but so want new york script system initially broug

here in new york city all of the country we're getting a shot of hope. we now know that we will ultimately defeat the coronavirus but what will this new normal be a lot of things won't be like that old pre lockdown world before the masks and temperature checks are one of many small businesses will be gone over 30 different retail and restaurant chains filed for bankruptcy in 2021 and many more downsizing stores and restaurants shutting down during the pandemic big tech is now moving in amazon facebook and google have moved thousands of their employees to the big apple the 3 tech giants now have over 22000 employees in new york city and more are expected these silicon valley giants are buying up iconic office buildings another aspect of new york city life public transportation is also not doing so well the jobs of thousands of transit workers are on the brink as the trains shut down each night in order to be clean and comply with health regulations new york city is going to enter 2021 with a significant loss at this point the city has actually dropped off

just here in new york city. we're on 42nd street, and i want to give you a sense of how much of an urgency there is for people to get tested. this is just one of the testing sites here on 42nd street in midtown manhattan. you can see a couple of dozen people there waiting about a dozen or so. but if you turn around this way, i want to show you something else as we come up the 42nd street here, you'll see as we get closer, there is another testing site as well. just a block away with even more people waiting to get tested. there is a shortage of tests here in new york city and new york state there is around the nation, quite frankly. but particularly here in new york city, we've seen long lines like this of people wanting to get tested. especially now, given that busy holiday travel season and given how this really is the epicenter here in new york city. the problem is there not enough test sites, because many of them work blows down this year. when people thought that this pandemic was over here in new york city

but this new mandate will hit a 184000 private businesses across the city of new york. they will be required to have vaccinations for all of their employees. quite a dramatic move and there's been quite a negative reaction in response. may a de blasio will impose a 1st in the nation vaccine mandate for all private sector workers in new york city . build up last year isn't a mayor. he's a tyrant. just spoke to catherine wild, the president of a prominent n y c business group. we were blindsided, there is no full warning, no discussion, no idea about whether it's legal, a who he expects to enforce it. new york city announces covey vaccine mandate for private businesses going where no city has gone before, because it's potentially unenforceable, and will probably get stuck in the courts until well after the mid to parts at the end of the year. now the new york city mayor expects that this will survive any legal challenges. we already saw a situation where for a moment jo biden's, federal mandate was put on hold by the courts. but then later upheld in the court of appeal. a
