 WHEREAS, It is the intent of this Legislative Body to honor and
commemorate the distinguished histories of the communities which
comprise the noble body of this great Empire State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
commemorate the 153rd Anniversary of the City of Yonkers on June 1,
2025; and

 WHEREAS, Located along the Hudson River, Yonkers is New York's
fourth largest city and the largest city in Westchester County; and

 WHEREAS, First established in 1646, Yonkers was not officially
recognized as a city until June 1, 1872; and

 WHEREAS, A beacon of diversity and cultures, 41 percent of the
population in Yonkers is Hispanic; and

 WHEREAS, The City of Yonkers has a rich history, with the invention
of the first safety elevator, and the operation of the largest carpet
mill; additionally, leaders in several industries have set up in this
rapidly growing city which serves as the gateway between New York City
and the Hudson Valley; and

 WHEREAS, Today, Yonkers' Downtown Waterfront district continues to
grow, with hundreds of new luxury high-rise apartments offering stellar
views of the Hudson River and Palisades, gourmet restaurants, shops, and
parks, just a 25-minute train ride to midtown Manhattan; and

 WHEREAS, Furthermore, businesses, both large and small, continue to
thrive and grow in Yonkers, and the city is home to cultural amenities
including the Hudson River Museum, prestigious colleges such as Sarah
Lawrence, shopping centers, the arts, beautiful parks, and entertainment
venues such as Empire City Casino; and

 WHEREAS, Ranked among the safest cities in the country, Yonkers has
some of the best-rated schools in the region and offers dozens of
beautiful and historic neighborhoods, luxury waterfront living, and
housing for all incomes; and

 WHEREAS, Of historic origin, and remaining fruitful over the ebb and
flow of decades of growth and change, the City of Yonkers continues to
provide the quintessential quality of life for its residents; and

 WHEREAS, Today, under the able leadership of Mayor Mike Spano, the
residents of the City of Yonkers have a bright outlook for the future of
their community, which remains a beautiful place in which to live and
raise a family; and

 WHEREAS, In recognition of the City of Yonkers' rich history and
enduring contribution to the State of New York, this Legislative Body is
proud to pay tribute to this spirited city upon the occasion of its
153rd Anniversary; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 153rd Anniversary of the City of Yonkers, recognizing
the significance of the role it continues to play in the life of the
community of the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
