Queens Crap: They Should be Ashamed of Themselves

In an off site storage facility, some important museum holdings had not been properly safeguarded. As a result paintings etc. suffered damage. It was a major embarassment for NYHS. There was a subsequent investigation that followed (with wide media coverage) which led to the framing of guidelines, by (I think) N.Y.State regarding the care of important artifacts and collections materials in the various private museums throughout the state. This same organization has now demonstrated that it cares little for the stewardship of its neighborhood with the high rise monster it proposes to build. There's something hypocritical about a museum that's anti preservation, particularly in this regard! It's downright shameful!; Tuesday, February 06, 2007

She's a virgin. What am I bid ? This is just what we need now....less sky, trees, air and flowers, replaced by an abundance of concrete and glass! Sometimes I think that we're in the shadow of our own dark souls!; Tuesday, February 06, 2007
