About this episode
Thousands of longshoremen at several U.S. ports have gone on strike after their contracts expired, demanding better wages and addressing automation concerns. Experts warn that New York City's supply chains could be strained if it continues. Meanwhile, Open House New York runs from October 18-20, opening usually private spaces to the public. Plus, NYC's heating season starts on October 1, requiring landlords to provide heat when temperatures drop. WNYC’s David Brand explains tenant rights. Finally, a New Jersey developer will be the first Black woman to lead a major affordable housing project. WNYC's Mike Hayes has that story. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
