Wu was sworn in Tuesday during a ceremony inside Boston City Hall’s City Council chamber attended by local, state and federal officials. She hits the ground running after an unusually quick two-week transition from her election victory, a timeline kicked off by former Mayor Martin Walsh’s departure to Washington, D.C., in March. Wu campaigned on lofty goals, including abolishing the Boston Planning and Development Agency and boosting affordable housing efforts, drawing mixed reactions from Boston’s CRE members, who enjoyed a building boom under Walsh’s pro-development legacy.
