Is Weisbrod Notable?

FYI - the article is a stub, I am hoping to expand it as time permits, and (of course) welcome other wikipedians comments, edits, etc. My argument for notability for Weisbrod is a function of the number of time he has been cited in the media, as well as his longevity around NYC government, but note he is mainly a NYC/NY Region figure.

In terms of why he is notable this NY Times article - Weisbrod Brings Long Résumé to Advise the Mayor-Elect https://nyti.ms/1aolStV - gives a pretty good overview of his career. And in addition to what is already on the page, these are some mentions in:

NY Dailynews A transit rescue plan is in sight https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/transit-rescue-plan-sight-article-1.3886666
NY Dailynews Mayor de Blasio nominates Carl Weisbrod to sit on MTA board https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/mayor-de-blasio-nominates-carl-weisbrod-sit-mta-board-article-1.3003172
basically if you google carl weisbrod on NY Daily News, NY Times, etc you get a lot of articles.

Anyway, thoughts and comments welcome. NYC.Geek (talk) 14:30, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
