Antonio Reynoso is Brooklyn’s 20th Borough President. The son of two Dominican immigrants, Antonio was born and raised in Los Sures, Williamsburg, just three blocks down from where he lives today with his wife and two sons. He grew up in Section 8 housing, relying on food stamps for family meals and scholarships for education opportunities. He experienced firsthand how a little help can go a long way for a young family trying their hardest to put down roots and have a fair shot at the life they want.
In 2021, Antonio became the youngest Borough President elected to a four-year term, the first Latino to hold the office in the borough, and the first Dominican to be elected as a Borough President in NYC. Since then, he’s launched a history-making maternal health agenda and championed planning for a healthy, housed Brooklyn.

The 2026 Brooklyn Book List is a selection of ten titles that capture the borough’s diverse communities, histories, and identities. Curated by Borough Historian Asad Dandia, the list spans both fiction and nonfiction texts and tell the story of Brooklyn’s immigrant communities, its shifting neighborhoods, and the generations of residents who have built and rebuilt the borough over time.
Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso delivered his 2026 State of the Borough address before a packed audience of over 1,000 New Yorkers at the Brooklyn Museum. The Borough President touted four years of landmark investments in maternal health, housing, and education; and announced new initiatives supporting
Brooklyn’s students, creatives, and its immigrant communities.
For centuries, New York City has welcomed immigrants from around the globe in pursuit of a better life. Immigrants have long shaped our city’s culture, economy, and history and they remain a vital part of the fabric of our city. Every New Yorker, regardless of citizenship status, has rights and protections under the law. This digital resource hub is a one-stop-shop to learn more about your rights and equip yourself with resources to protect your neighbors.
