let's ask indicated congress and podcast host, reuben, of our reuben. thank you so much for joining me on this. got a great to be back with you. thanks. okay, so i just had to start off. i just kinda away from ground. what do you think this would be as big of an issue for chris cuomo if he had never crossed that line and brought his brother on the show? even though he, governor of new york, especially during the pandemic, highlighting him as many times as he did. i think that's one of the lines he crossed, certainly the fluff soft treatment during the pandemic extolling him really as a hero and a model of good behavior and good leadership. the other line though, that's just as important that chris cuomo crossed we now know, and he's mentioned in the a g. 's report was in advising the inner circle of his brother as to how to handle the story and handle the media. really, he gave his expert opinion about how to massage the media coverage and that's why he shouldn't across. well, and that's, i'm talking about, you know, obviously you have, there's ethical,

john kettle here with reuben, junius, and rose. we are representing one of the building owners in chinatown. chinatown has some of the strictest and most detailed zoning codes in the city, understanding the special unique community and resource that chinatown is. as of today, the zoning has size controls that employ very strict maximums on the size of the commercial spaces. in china unto, you cannot go -- chinatown, you cannot go over 4,000 or 5,000 square foot, depending on the building you're in, and there's no availability to go to ask for a variance to that. it's to maintain the small neighborhood scale of chinatown. i will note in recent years, these controls have been begun to be applied on upper floors of the building that, practically speaking, we have not seen that happen before, and that's kind of been happening as the last year has gone on, so this is any space in a building, second floor, third floor, as well. this legislation does help with that. it allows to exceed these use size limits for certain nonprofits. as of r
