Mayor Bill de Blasio and Staten Island Borough President James Oddo held a news conference on the city’s Build it Back program,  designed to give aid to low-income homeowners and renters affected by Superstorm Sandy. And a new report on how Sandy rebuilding can reduce inequality in New York City was released by Alliance for a Just Rebuilding at a rally on the steps of City Hall. Also in the news, construction workers rallied at a luxury condo site where a construction worker fell from a scaffold and was severely injured. Thanks to Jessica Ramos at BuildupNYC.org.
