FDNY fire houses saved for now but CAUTION
I just want to warn you -- Albany and corrupt politicos that for some reason avoid prosecution for stealing tax payer money from Albany to City Hall and even manage to get re-elected have been us in a hellish situation.
If Albany does not close the budget deficit which last time I checked was billions of dollars anytime soon, NY and NYC in particular are in for a hellish ride and maybe even an official depression and some New Yorkers are already in one and I not talking about the emotional kind....but the economic.
Sorry to be a kill joy but Mike Bloomberg had no right to push development and shut firehouses after Sept. 11.
We have so many infrastructure breaks from his reckless tsunami of development and his continued population push most especially with housing we need more fire houses open.
It is disgusting to close senior centers. I have demanded every mega dorm that uses the term community facility yet exclude the communities give us community centers in the zone busting NYU, NY Law, Cooper Union, SVA, Cooper Union all gobbling up the East Village. NYU mega dormed the East Village to death.
Don't start celebrating fire houses saved.
It may be another fake-out like Bloomberg claiming the budget was flush when it wasn't-- all smoke and mirrors with Bloomberg and when the going gets tough Bloomberg cuts the NYPD and FDNY usually right away.
The Albany ego-maniacs, clowns, thugs has still not resolved the big crisis and if they don't we will go from a continued decline in quality of life except for the rich -- we will go from bad to worse.
But on your safety belts and your hard hats.
