a ferry and a high end hotel! nice
I have a post up about that Times “ghost bicycle” story accusing the Times of Brooklyn-bashing:
http://www.futureofcapitalism.com/2010/08/new-york-times-versus-brooklyn-mothers
Highly misleading headline on “interest rates and home prices”.
***Bid half off peak comps***
“Steve Ehresman, a bartender and manager at the Turkey’s Nest, a bar just steps from the development, said he was not worried about competition from the hotel’s rooftop bar, because he serves $4, 32-ounce draft beers. “Up on the roof it will be high-priced drinks and crazy people,†he said. ”
haha awesome
Good for HOM!! I think its great that this guy is giving out meals to those out of work.
“Bike Lane Triumphs Over Church Parkers in Heights”
In NYC, cyclists have more clout than God.
Highly misleading headline on the “gang attack”…
