Long Island City Friday afternoon linkage

Ah, the Shannon Pot finally gets some press. I love that weirdo place. Was just there last night. The bartender was asking how Dutch Kills was… she hasn’t been yet but apparently they get spillover when they are at capacity.

WNYC reports that the Mayor is giving millions away to any neighborhood:

“having significant poverty, unemployment, rate of home foreclosures, or general distress.” So this is what Mayor Bolomberg considers LIC to be? Has he gone out of his capitalist mind or is he making his own private Manhattan.

What’s all this bad punctuation. Aren’t you supposed to use a question mark at the end of an interrogative sentence. Where did you people learn to write.

Yes #4 you can see the high light of Hunter’s Point shown in the map attached to the link. On further investigation this money was supposed to also go to small business as well. But unless you make over $200,00 you don’t qualify as a small business.

It’s basically bail out money for developers. I have yet to hear of 1 single foreclosure in Hunter’s Point. I have herd of a few non closings…which is entirely different.

Duh, around. Sorry. Some of the topics are sort of worn out, if you know what I mean. Just an opinion, not a criticism.
