Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

This is an excellent short for in four plus minutes it uncovers the two biggest problems in preservation:
1. the role of Pratt and similiar institutions. Instead of studying the real problems facing New Yorkers - the deterioration of our communities from hollowing out and overdevelopment, they put lipstick on the pig of overdevelopment.
2. the silence of Muncipal Art Society and other organizations in preservation on the evils of plans like this. They focus instead, on trying to live with development.
Our problems are with them. Its not the developers. Its not Bloomberg.
Very clever. Seniors are prone to get cancers and all sorts of nasty stuff.
Very clever.
You will never know if its the location.
