Celeste Balducci-Chapin “Dear Mike: You will soon be in charge of a city in crisis. So many need help and so many want to help. You will bring these two together. Best of luck, Celeste.”

If you could give Mayor elect Bloomberg a piece of advice or suggestion what would it be?

David A Rabb “Pay attention to the other boroughs. There is life outside of Manhattan. Thank you!”

Darryl Hoss “Put more money into our city parks, libraries and social services for those who truly need them. Give us the number of police we need in Queens.”

Reya Fernandez “Respect the middle class population because we are the hardworking people of this city. We are what makes New York the great city it is.”

Melanie Greco “I’d tell Michael Bloomberg to walk softly and to remember that New York City is not just Manhattan.”

Judy Amato “It’s a message of healing. Healing from a divisive election. Healing in the aftermath of September 11 and to be vigilant and hear the voices of the city.”
