New York City Gets New Mayor: Zohran Mamdani Sworn In at Midnight | Historic First

New York City ushered in the New Year with a change in leadership as Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as mayor at midnight on January 1. The private ceremony was led by New York Attorney General Letitia James and held at the historic Old City Hall subway station, an architecturally iconic space closed to the public since 1945.

Mamdani placed his hand on the Koran during the oath of office, marking a historic moment as he became the first Muslim mayor of the United States’ largest city. The symbolic location and timing underscored the transition, as New York entered 2026 with a new mayor and a milestone in the city’s political history.
