Clinton Hill, Brooklyn — In a show of gratitude and community solidarity, Hon. Renee Collymore, Democratic Liaison for the 57th Assembly District, will host “Party With The Mayor”, a special thank you event in honor of Mayor Eric Adams, following his successful efforts to reduce the size of the city’s largest migrant shelter in Clinton Hill.
NYC NEWSWIRE – Mayor Eric Adams with Renee Collymore and some of the Clinton Hill community members who sat with the mayor for dinner to discuss community issues surrounding the influx of 4,000 asylum seekers into the 2 block radius in Clinton Hill
The event will take place at Sanders Studios, 525 Waverly Avenue, on Sunday April 6 from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM, and is open to all Fort Greene and Clinton Hill residents who wish to express their appreciation for the Mayor’s responsiveness and leadership.
Just weeks ago, Collymore organized a private dinner with Mayor Adams and a small group of homeowners and business owners, where they shared concerns about the strain the shelter—with over 4,000 asylum seekers—was placing on the community’s infrastructure and resources. Since then, the number of shelter residents has been reduced to fewer than 400, a shift that Collymore and many others in the community say reflects responsible governance and compromise.
“Mayor Adams listened,” said Hon. Collymore. “He sat with us, heard us out, and said he would do something—and he did. On behalf of my neighbors, we are grateful for the safe and dignified transition of the migrants to a new location in the Bronx.”
Several local businesses are showing their support by donating goods and services to Collymore’s event, including:

This event is not only about showing appreciation but also about promoting unity in the face of political division. Collymore emphasized the need for leadership that can bring together diverse viewpoints.
“Clinton Hill is in dire need of elected officials who understand the art of compromise among residents, not those pushing a narrow socialist agenda,” she said.
As the Mayor prepares to run as an Independent after collecting over 25,000 signatures on Democratic petitions, community members say his accessibility and action-oriented leadership are what set him apart.
“We have never had a Mayor as accessible as Mayor Adams,” added Collymore. “If you can vote for Cuomo, you can surely vote for Adams.”
Collymore also praised the recent drop in crime under the Adams administration, calling it a testament to his public safety focus and steady leadership.
The community is encouraged to attend this celebration, which will highlight the power of local engagement, bipartisan support, and a shared commitment to neighborhood well-being.
