Eric Adams moves to ban 150-year tradition of horse-drawn carriages in Central Park after spree of ponies running free, dying on the job

New York City Mayor Eric Adams is pushing to ban horse-drawn carriages in Central Park, a tradition that has lasted for 150 years. This decision comes after a series of incidents where ponies ran free and even died while working. Critics are calling this move a 'desperation act,' suggesting that Adams is struggling to keep up with his campaign rivals. The implications of this ban could affect tourism and the livelihoods of those involved in the carriage industry, making it a significant topic of discussion in the city.
