7/11/2016, Valerie Mason, the president of the East 72nd Street Neighborhood Association, said she saw drug deals happen in front of two kiosks in her neighborhood on the Fourth of July. The dealers were makings phone calls and handing over plastic baggies, she said. 

“Why are we going back to the 1970s? That really wasn’t a great period in New York City,” Mason said during a Community Board 8 meeting on July 6. “Why would you want somebody to have unlimited access like that to create a crime scene in the middle of Manhattan?”” “LinkNYC Kiosks Clogging Sidewalks With Encampments and Drug Deals: Locals,” 7/11/2016...image below, dnainfo

The late Mayor Ed Koch saved NY City from 1970s decay. There’s no one like him on the horizon today. He had a tremendous personality, loved the city, and could be seen everywhere. I was at the Russian Tea Room with friends sometime in the 1980s, and Mr. Koch happened to be at a nearby table. He turned around, smiling, and said to us, “How are the blinchikis?” Great, we said. For some years after he was out of office he hosted an excellent daily one hour radio show.
