New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio takes calls from listeners and discusses this week in NYC.

@BrianLehrer #askthemayor On behalf of restaurants, we do NOT need indoor dining today - we only need a plan! Why end “Open Streets” on Oct 31? Our industry will crumble on Nov 1.

Caller asks @NYCMayor on @BrianLehrer why the city hasn't poured its efforts into improving remote learning rather than focusing on reopening school buildings.
