Happenings Around Town

Here at Mr NYC we try to be upbeat about the state of our beloved city. But sometimes we suffer setbacks. A couple of interesting articles from NYC papers demonstrate that.

It curtains for the proposed water park on Randalls Island. It was a lovely idea and would have provided fun and jobs for the many but sadly, the money just wasn't there. With Financing in Doubt, City Cancels Plans for Randalls Island Water Park

While NYC may be boomtown, the middle-class is disappearing. Sad, but hopefully Mayor Bloomberg's PlaNYC will turn that around. Census Show Middle Class in Flight From New York

Some good news, however. After last month's subway flooding disaster, the state government and the MTA are promising fixes. We won't hold our breath. After Flooding, M.T.A Plans Subway Fixes

Oh, and the MTA is promising subway cell phone service in stations because that won't be annoying.

Good night and good luck.
