President Trump to meet NYC Mayor Mamdani at Gracie Mansion on Monday
President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Monday at the mayor’s official residence, Gracie Mansion. The meeting is set to take place while Trump is in the city for the United Nations General Assembly, where he will deliver remarks on Tuesday and hold talks with international leaders. Both officials have met previously, including Mamdani’s two visits to the White House, and their interactions have been described as unusually friendly despite opposing political views.
Their latest public exchange involved Trump accusing the mayor of “destroying” the city after Mamdani supported Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposed tax on high‑value homes without a primary resident. The mayor’s office says the discussion will cover a range of topics important to New Yorkers.
