It’s a shame that the city is trying to eliminate the advantage program. If they do, it will only cause more people to go to homeless shelters, which will only sink the city deeper into debt.
Not to worry, though, for I’m sure that all of the affordable housing advocates on this board will rent the units in their brownstones to families that wind up getting evicted.
good call not getting panasonic to move here. makes jersey look like suckers. 100 million dollars worth of corporate welfare which will just move them 5 miles and not create any new jobs?
