A historic New York City mansion is once again filled with the sounds of family activities.

Mayor Bill de Blasio, his wife and their two children woke up in their official Manhattan residence for the first time on Monday.

No one had lived at Gracie Mansion since Rudolph Giuliani left office in 2001.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg remained in his opulent Upper East Side town house during his 12-year administration, though he oversaw extensive renovations to Gracie Mansion.

De Blasio and his family had long lived in Park Slope. The progressive Brooklyn neighborhood helped shape the mayor-elect’s political identity.

They spent some time debating whether to make the switch. They began the moving process at the beginning of June.
