Trump, Mamdani Meet at Gracie Mansion During UN General Assembly Visit
The mayor’s office said the talks will focus on issues affecting New York City and New Yorkers, after two previous White House meetings.
President Donald Trump arrived at Gracie Mansion on Monday for a meeting with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, marking the first presidential visit to the 1799-built residence since Ronald Reagan visited in 1981.
The leaders are reconnecting after seven months, maintaining a rare warm relationship despite political differences. This meeting follows two previous summits held at the White House in November 2025 and February 2026.
Trump's trip coincides with the United Nations General Assembly in midtown Manhattan, with the commanders-in-chief scheduled to talk around 4 p.m. to focus on issues affecting New York City and New Yorkers.
Despite the warm relationship, neither has shied away from criticism. Earlier this month, Mamdani and mayors nationwide filed a joint lawsuit to stop Trump from restricting immigration.
On his way to the Upper East Side residence, Trump wrote on Truth Social that Gracie Mansion is one of his "favorite" places, noting he has worked with "some great Mayors, some average Mayors, and some bad Mayors.
