On election day, the Times takes a moment to look at the second of the those "two cities" that likely mayor Bill de Blasio kept talking about during the campaign, via a snapshot of Brooklyn's Housing Court: "Change is at their doorstep; they live near the Barclays Center, gentrification's lodestar. They pay $911 for a two-bedroom. Two white kids moved in down the hall and pay twice as much. He speaks of this without rancor; he says the white kids have been priced out, too. Who will he vote for? De Blasio, he says without hesitation." [NYT; photo by H.L.I.T.]
