“The true key to the city is its people. And I'm honored to accept the recognition on behalf of my eight and a half million neighbors. You know, like there used to be, the television series is eight and a half million stories in New York City. 'The Naked City,' I guess it was. But anyway, my eight and a half million neighbors. Thank you. Thank you all for coming and enjoy the festival.”

5. SOUNDBITE (English) Eric Adams, mayor of New York City:
“These mean streets have become kind and gentle. You deserve this key to the city of New York because you have opened our hearts for years and for generations. We've all grew up on you. I don't care what ethnicity, what community. South Jamaica, South Bronx, Lower East Side. Doesn't matter where you are. Everyone knew this New York taxi driver that was able to drive us to the abilities that we are now. Thank you, brother. This key to the city is for you and all that you do.” Adams presents De Niro with key, they pose for photographs

“He saw something else in here that I couldn't. And he's actually very much a visionary because he saw the potential of a massive resurrection of this part of the city, because it was very quiet in the early '80s, mid-'80s with hardly anything here. I mean, he saw that it was able to make a new city within the city and this city being the greatest city in the world.”

“So now the Tribeca Film Festival is an indomitable institution and it's a beacon. And Tribeca itself, as opposed to when I was here in the early '80s, is a most vibrant, alive location. It's the place to be and it's going to continue to grow. And Bob and it's amazing you did all this without having the keys until now because now you've got the key. So I give you that. I love you.”

STORYLINE:
Martin Scorsese saluted his longtime friend Robert De Niro, as the Tribeca Festival co-founder received his key to the city, in New York Wednesday (7 June 2023).
“He saw that it was able to make a new city within the city and this city being the greatest city in the world,” Scorsese smiled, before the film icon was presented with the key by the mayor of New York City, Eric Adams.
Adams laced his own speech with De Niro quotes and film titles.
“These mean streets have become kind and gentle. You deserve this key to the city of New York because you have opened our hearts for years and for generations,” Adams said.
After accepting the honor, De Niro told the packed audience at the Tribeca Grill that “The true key to the city is its people.”
“My eight and a half million neighbors. Thank you. Thank you all for coming and enjoy the festival,” he said.
A three day fan celebration of the star, in honor of his 80th birthday in August, was also announced at the event - De Niro Con will run at Spring Studios in New York City from September 29 - October 1 2023.
