Mayor after de Blasio (5)

I believe the answer is:

adams

(Other definitions for adams that I've seen before include "Ansel --, US landscape photographer" , "Sort of apple" , "Father and son US presidents" , "Richard --, Watership Down author" , "Name of two early US presidents" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
