    After 32 years in the anchor chair, Lewis Dodley announced in early May that he would be retiring from that role. As NY1’s nighttime anchor, he has brought his storytelling and iconic voice to New Yorkers for more than three decades. Through triumphs and tragedies and everything in between, generations of New Yorkers have relied on him each evening, as have his co-workers. As we say goodbye to Lewis this week, we thought we would revisit an interview Pat Kiernan did with Lewis in November 2023, where they discuss how Lewis got into the business, where he finds inspiration and his hopes for the future of news.

    How much will congestion pricing cost New Yorkers?

    In just a few months, congestion pricing will come to New York City. Most drivers will have to pay a $15 fee to enter Manhattan below Central Park. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority hopes congestion pricing will lead to reduced traffic, less pollution and more money for roads and public transportation infrastructure. But the program took nearly two decades to come to fruition, and there are a lot of details still being worked out before it is implemented. Host Pat Kiernan speaks with his Spectrum News NY1 colleagues about what congestion pricing means for New Yorkers.
