If Cy Vance wants to arrange Teflon status for Con Ed like he did fixing favors for Goldman Sachs -- so glad he is excoriated in Flash Boys -- Cy Vance fixes for dirty cops to white collar crimes and top political figures even mayor Bloomberg who broke campaign laws and commited perjury during the Haggerty trial but cy is no saint when it comes to campaign regulations?

Destroying "old" New York
I continue to write the mayor about over the top development of this new hideous New York being built on the old infrastructure. Also, how the gas smell may be somehow related to this issue, which has been completely ignored by the Bloomberg administration. A powerful example is next door to me, St. Ann's Church from 1847, which was torn down. St. Ann's, where religious staff members resided and homeless people slept on the stairs, now will be replaced by another hideous NYU megadorm an the tallest building ever in the East Village, with 700 students. But New York City, NYU and Hudson Realty have never answered questions about infrastructure concerns like sewage removal, water, electricity, etc. Stop the exploitation and start protecting the people of New York City!

Old post and letter I found that got a lot of traffic before new explosion.
* Since this letter was published we all witnessed the horrific infrastructure break that looked like a terrorist attack mid-town and one person died and others were terribly injured.
+NYU want to cram far more students in the building and I video taped the new pipes but my question is how does it affect the old pipes they connect to?
Taller buildings have been built but NYU weighs

Reminder Dept of Investigation under Bloomberg and de Blasio say no stealing re 911 a billion plus dollars over budget - that's in NYC Gov DOI report so do you think we will get an honest report on this explosion?
