Trump, Mamdani Meet at Gracie Mansion During UN General Assembly Visit
Trump and Mamdani discussed housing, immigration and public safety as the mayor opened technical talks on a $21 billion Queens project, officials said.
- On September 21, 2026, President Donald Trump met New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani at Gracie Mansion, marking the first presidential visit to the mayoral residence in 45 years.
- Their third in-person meeting continued a collaborative dynamic established in November 2025 and February 2026, when Trump and Mamdani discussed affordable housing and city issues at the White House.
