## Resource

New York is seriously eyeing a Winter Olympics and Paralympics bid for 2042, with Governor Hochul launching a special committee to explore a potential partnership between Lake Placid and NYC. The goal? Bring the Olympic flame back to New York using existing venues for a modern, efficient Games. Over a year, the team—led by Ashley Walden and including state, city, and federal reps—will examine logistics, funding, legal hurdles, and community impact. Lake Placid, with its rich Olympic legacy and $750M in upgrades, plus backup sliding tracks for the 2026 Italian Games, offers a strong foundation. Key advisors include Olympic medalist Andrew Weibrecht and former Assemblyman Billy Jones, who sees the combo of historic venues and NYC’s global reach as a rare opportunity. After their full-year review, the committee will report whether a formal bid is viable—though final approval would require further steps.
