In this AudioFiles episode, we report on environmental advocates’ pushback on a natural pipeline off the south shore of Staten Island that's been given the go-ahead from the NYS DEC. Then, a look at NYC's plan to bring relief to the chronically flood-prone neighborhood of Jewel Streets near the Brooklyn-Queens border. And we hear the story of one New Yorker's endeavor to rehabilitate and rehome red-eared sliders abandoned in NYC to their native habitat in the south.

In this episode of AudioFiles, we celebrate the New Yorkers who survive and shape the urban landscape. We visit a Manhattan exhibit celebrating Shirley Chisholm, her political life, and how her legacy connects to Kamala Harris. We’ll also dive into Eric Adams’ war on rats, check in with street vendors on Roosevelt Avenue facing police crackdowns, and break down a new bill concerning broker fees in New York’s housing market.
