Adrienne Kivelson, author of "What Makes New York City Run?" discusses NYC's history and major changes to its Charter, its Constitution. We are reminded that the Charter, received in 1898 - a little over 100 years ago - made New York-New York City. The 1979 financial disaster prompted significant bookkeeping changes. Over the years, Charters have broadened citizen participation, making New York City a more democratic City.
