Good catch Edward. I'm kind of sick of misinformation from news people. You would think they like to get their facts straight

How many apartments or cubicles for SRO were found in the houses?

Yup, the not-so-all knowing media got an easily checked fact wrong. The location is in Ozone Park.

I guess on tomorrow's news we'll hear that there were 2 illegal apts and 20 tenants in each house.

And tomorrow I will read in all those urban think tanks 'studies' raving about move development and this blight ignored.

I am sure all those Tower Kids writing the reports at Pratt and NYU and Hunter don't know anyone living in a flop house or an illegal basement after crossing the Rio.

But boy oh boy. Look crosseyed at a bike lane and LOOK OUT!

Ah shucks, give the Tower Kids SOME credit.

Ozone Park, Ozone Lounge, the latest drug to send them to the Ozone. It might be all the same to them.

But you are wrong in one point - they know those people living in illegal conversions. Hell they see them everyday.

The bussboys cleaning the tables at the ginmills these kids go to.

The tower kids have lots of sympathy, understanding -- to say nothing of a pool or future gardeners and nannies.

It all makes sense!
