At One Police Plaza, Mamdani said Griffin funded an NYPD memorial wall due to open later this year, alongside Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch and families of slain officers.
The praise came days after Mamdani's viral video promoted a tax on non-primary homes above $5 million, filmed outside Griffin's $238 million Manhattan penthouse.
Griffin called that video a personal attack in Oslo and warned he could rethink a major Midtown project, highlighting tensions between City Hall's progressive agenda and New York's financial sector.
