In the Monday Links, there’s a link to a NY Post article that claims Brooklyn was the 34th most popular for girls in 2010.
Made me think of my friend, who just had a third son over the weekend. All three of his sons have names starting with the same letter. This is what his wife wanted and she clearly wears the pants in the family, but my question is, why on earth do people do this (i.e., use the same letter to name all of their kids)? It seems completely bizarre to me.
I think you are referring to a low-slung reddish building between 1st and 2nd Street. It is currently a parking garage/warehouse. This property has been the subject of litigation for years. The long-time owner (Thomas Fatato Realty)brought in a partner (Isaac Katan, who is a developer). The long-time tenant (Bergen Tile) claims that the inclusion of a partner violated his lease, which gave him the right of first refusal to buy the building. The Supreme Court of NY ruled that it is not a violation (apparently setting a precedent, as this is a famous case), but the matter is now being appealed.
benson, bldg looked faily new and was on west side of 4th, bluish glass and steel. Two story high at most. Parking entrance was on 1st(empty).
Looked a little like the asphalt green Y on the UES.
Curious as to what is there, if anything. Commercial, govt?

Rob, if you were married for a long enough amount of time, you would understand everything about low slung, bluish objects.
We also have to keep the liberlas in check from bleeding the country dry.

“Did anyone buy any parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme at the Fair???”
No, but I ran into Chuck Scarborough there.
“It’s interesting how most conservatives seem so much angrier than liberals regarding just about anything.”
It’s a natural consequence of actually understanding what’s going on.
