About this episode
New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission voted to designate a new historic district in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. Plus, employees of a city-run juvenile detention center are facing federal charges for allegedly taking bribes in exchange for smuggling in contraband. And finally, more than 4 million New York and New Jersey residents’ drinking water tested above a new federal threshold for so-called "forever chemicals,” at least once last year. The analysis is the latest from the WNYC newsroom and data reporter Jaclyn Jeffrey-Wilensky. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
