I took the 11 years at Rockefeller Plaza working for Lazard for granted.
Even got annoyed at Christmas time because of the tourists and bus detours.
Now I would give anything to be a part of it one more time.
For one day :)
De blasi and cuomo have Destroyed NYC
But you guys should have seen it in the day.
Under Rudy.
The Metropolitan Opera House, the theatre district, the museums, the World Trade Center, the World Financial Center..it was the last great time to be a NYer.
It is what it is
LIBERALS DESTROY EVERYTHING THEY TOUCH..................
Agreed.
I was there in the 60’s for college and grad school.
Just a marvelous place. Safe, fast, what it was famous for.
The decline there and elsewhere is due to a slide in respect for merit and a rise in left wing navel gazing. Almost willed to happen.
The same was said about Troy, Rome, and later Constantinople.
The dems job is to tear everything down so they can build it back up in their image and likeness.
If he tells the truth, he'll be a Censored Owl.
As for little ol' me ...
Visited several times through the years. Glad I got to during its more glorious times. Don’t think I will again...except to catch a connecting flight at one of the airports. Sad. 🙁
Born and raised in NYC...PS78, PS73 & Brooklyn Tech. Living in the Big Apple in the 50s, 60s & 70s was the best. Since then, not so much. Since 911...FUGEDABOUTIT.
Why did Constantinople get the works?
I agree.
It was turned Bad at some point in the 70s I think.
I know when I was driving a cab in the early 90s, the whole west side was littered with prostitutes right out in the open at night, cars picking them up left and right. Police not stopping anyone. Drug deals everywhere.
So you were here when it was still very good, then it got bad and then rudy made it good again.
Now it got bad again.
Ya know, it’s ironic. People from the red states Hate when NYers move to their towns.
But I have known HUNDREDS of liberal small town guys and gals that left for the bright lights of the Big Apple.
Ironic

I worked in the city for quite a few years. Thru the Dinkin’s to Rudy. The city really changed for the better after Dinkin’s was dumped. Used to be a great place to be around Christmas.
And I got to see it when it was at its greatest, just like those who got to see Troy, Rome and Constantinople in its best days.
I consider myself lucky and blessed :)
They simply take after their father Satan, it’s what the Devil does, the father of lies and destruction.
He has a date with destruction....we just don’t know when.
It seems sooner than later.
This article will obviously turn into the “see it’s good that everything is shut down so that nature can thrive in the cities” by the enviro whacko libtards.
Yes it was.
My graduation from Pace U in 1992...I was already a conservative...and we got dinkins as the speaker at our graduation!!
I almost threw up.
Rats and mice are his favorite foods!...............
