We're back
It's as good a time as any to return to the fold.My last post was last September and then it got busy in my life. The period was also punctuated with severe colds. It was either different variations of viruses or one heck of a long cold. In any case, just as well. My mind really wasn't into too many things. We might as well start the New Year right.
Of course we in Sunset Park were part of the snow removal fiasco. I suppose there will be investigations and the blame will fall somewhere. It's good to know we were not ignored. Even if it was by union thugs and our lousy mayor. The consolation is that Sunset Park survived the bad economy and we can give thanks that we haven't collapsed. Even during the great depression people were working and making a living.
We have a new Hotel which appeared 6 weeks ago on the corner of 26th and 4th avenue. We are becoming the Hotel center of Brooklyn and with that comes more visitors hopefully with cash. Now that I feel much better I will be out and about. But the Flu season isn't over, so we hope there are no other strange viruses that will put me under the weather.

welcome back! your blog plays an important part in keeping sunset park a viable community.
as for all our new hotels - i'll make a sad prediction. they will not hold tourists or visitors, they will quickly become "half-way" houses with the city & state picking up the tab (translation - us, the taxpaying public).
of course i want the needy provided for, but this will be a ruse to by-pass nimby regulations, and it will not limit the number of persons that can be housed at a single site and it will avoid providing support staff supervison.
we need to keep an eye on this and not allow it to happen, let's call upon our councilwoman to stay on top of this potentially neighborhood destroying prospect.
Nice article, thanks for the information. sewa elf
