In the first month of 2020, when no one expected the devastating pandemic ahead, Momo was very good news for Roosevelt Island.
Coler Specialty Hospital hosted a welcoming event. There were T-shirts and a sponsorship waiting for this injection of love going by the name “Momo.”
Here’s our story from one year ago.

Still Searching: Transparency Delayed at RIOC
New York’s Freedom of Information Law rests on a basic principle: government records belong to the public unless an agency can identify a lawful reason to withhold them.
New York’s Freedom of Information Law rests on a basic principle: government records belong to the public unless an agency can identify a lawful reason to withhold them. For Roosevelt Island residents, that right matters because RIOC controls public land, infrastructure, transportation, contracts and development without functioning as a locally elected government.
Momo is fine. She is cruising the halls of Coler. She visits the offices and units. She takes her long nightly strolls on the island, gets groomed at Pupculture and has weekended in the country so she can do dog stuff. She visits offices and knows that there is always a treat to be found.
It looked like a success from Day One, and she’s one beam of light shining through this year.
Thanks.
