  1. DH, I totally disagree. I think poor people should subsidize parks for rich people, but, of course, they shouldn’t be allowed to use them. Rather, I think all parks in rich neighborhoods should be gated, like Grammercy Park, and only the rich people nearby should have keys.

  2. quote:
    i think parks located in rich neighborhoods should be able to get their operating expenses paid for by property taxes of adjacent bldgs.

    i feel like they pretty much do no? although all the new buildings are all yuppie welfare condos. (stupid 421 tax abatement)

  3. well by that logic, i should also get a property tax for not putting offsprings in the school either. i also never call the police, do not drive, never call 311 or 911, dont visit soup kitchens or food pantries, and a whole host of other city servives. since i dont use any of them i should get a property tax break ()i know im a renter but even still it would be nice to get a yearly refund from the city for services unused.

  4. “people who send their kids to private school should get a property tax break”

    Couldn’t agree more, *rob*.

    I also think people with multiple residences outside the City should get a property tax break since they’re not availing themselves of City services full time.
