In Cali some of the worse rehabs re lack of proper maintenance are the public buildings like classrooms, school libraries, school yards.

Then come the city/county/state office buildings.

Most all of the above spend budgeted $’s on salaries, bonuses and ??? for the elites, who controlled those buildings.

Smart Construction Managers refuse to bid on the above.

The delayed maintenance, often, was terrible and maybe worse, about 3 decades ago.

Smart Project Managers refused to bid on any of the so called governmental jobs, noted above.

Many long standing construction companies went belly up after bidding and getting lost causes as jobs.

One of our west coast married into our family is a NJ Italian gal with a lot of relatives and friends in the NYC/NJ/PA area.

She now has a grown daughter living and working in that area. So, she has more reason to fly back to the NE Hell Hole as she calls it.

She avoids, JFK, Newark and uses Philly most of the time.

Her travel agent suggested flying into DC/Dulles and catching a train to NJ or driving to and from the DC area.

Yep. Philly, and occasionally Baltimore, was my choice when I lived in the area. NYC is inhabitable.

Other than the pilots most airport personnel appear to be "poc", which I am sure you have noticed as well.

My wife, who is also technically a "poc" pointed this out to me many years ago as one of her first jobs upon coming to the US was at an airport. She hated it and couldn't wait to get out because most of the employees were - as she called it - "ghetto".

In 1968, we (my family) went to JFK for a vacation and at the entrance to the airport was a stripped police car. I knew then that NYC was a cesspool.

The TWA terminal hotel is nice from pictures. If it was at Tampa or Bradley (Hartford - Springfield International), it would be visited by me...

The plane could’ve landed at Newark, Stewart or Bradley. Bradley does get flights from Logan (Boston) and JFK when those airports get closed.

My guess is the NLZ airline operations are point to point and it is cheaper to return back to base than fly into an alternative airport and reroute passengers to different airports.
