FILE - In this Jan. 5, 2014 file photo, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio smiles while posing for pictures with visitors at Gracie Mansion in New York, during an open house and photo opportunity with the public. The newly elected de Blasio stooped his 6-foot-5 frame for hours to shake hands with regular New Yorkers touring Gracie Mansion, telling them the opulent mayoral residence was “the people’s house.” De Blasio’s first few weeks in office have offered a look at a mayor skilled in the art of political stagecraft: with the goal, in his case, of coming across as a regular Joe.
