For someone who seems to consider themselves so 'above it all,' you sure seem to devote a lot of energy towards the skater brats who hang out by the park circle, who might as well be invisible to everyone else. :?

Maybe you havn't noticed, but 90% of those assholes disappeared when the 78th and Park Dept issued summons.
So devoting energy does gets results.

Subject: Above the rest
I didn't get anything until I was well into adulthood, and for your information I didn't inherit anything from my parents. I had to join the military and then work and study my ass off through college on the GI bill because nothing was guaranteed. Didn't have anyone to pay my way through some go-away college straight out of high school, like most of you, or even to tell me how to take out loans to do it myself! So excuse me while I continue to laugh straight to the bank on this, I earned it!

Restless,I have to commend you for the experiences you've had and the goals you reached and must admit I am envious that I've been denied the opportunity to climb the ladder as you did.

What a pleasure it is to see him slice away ,sometimes he gets confused and gets carried away ,but we can't talk about it due to upcoming law suits.
Enough of me , lets get back to you as you are the fulfillment of the American Dream and my hero.

Thanks to "Jack [aka Guest]" for the great story and background on the nash family. I lived down the street for a number of years, and like others, I did the requsite acris search and wrote some letters inquiring about that rotting hovel across from the school on 2nd st.
That fashion website is fantastic. The Times reporter should be able to make a great article about all this. -
I cop to being Ryan Connor quoted in the article. Hopefully there will be a follow-up article once the fate of the building is decided.
-
Interesting article. now-what about the house on 2nd Street across from 321 that she owns? Any reason why that just sits there?

I wondered about that, too. -
I know people who have known her for over 30 years through real estate, and sorry to say, she isn't all there....the fact that she has let prime real estate just sit there says everything.
-
LMAO!
The Nashes say they are seeking investors to transform the building into an arts and media center, with galleries and showrooms for emerging designers.
Because we all know how much money there is to be made in an "arts and media centre", I'm sure that in today's financial climate there'll be investors falling over themselves to assist Ms Nash in her business plan, especially considering the structural state of the building and the amount of work it'll take to stop it rotting into the ground :roll:
Why does mundane neighborhood crap like this make the NY times? Must be a slow news day

ha! Definitely! What she's doing, see, is waiting for that building to totally collapse - because an empty lot at that location would be a lot more valuable than one with that "building" on it. -
Awesome thread! I was poking around mainly cause I wasn't sure which building was the Landmark (though I thought I knew and was right) - I also wondered about why it just sat there vacant. I would have loved to been at some of these wacky goings on. . . . anyway, some lady is sueing the city about 'almost being decapitated" by glass falling off it . . . . sounds completely bogus.
Read on . . .According to the Brooklyn Papers, this woman (Pat Maliha, a Windsor Terrace preservationist) was “nearly decapitated” last week from a 36-inch piece of glass falling from everyone’s favorite Park Slope eyesore: the 10,000-square-foot brownstone on 7th Ave. that used to house the “legendarily wacky” Landmark Pub.
Here is the whole article . . . .
Apparently Maliha was in Tarzian West across the street when the guillotine fell. Now she is going to sue, according to Brooklyn Papers. Not sue the building owner, but the city, for not securing the loose and broken windows: “The city knew about the danger … But it didn’t do enough to protect people.” Well… maybe we’re a little late to the story, but there has been scaffolding around the building since at least the beginning of March. And one obvious question: how did the glass get from the window to the curb, especially with all that scaffolding sidewalk tunnel to catch it? Take a look at this photo and try to imagine the trajectory of the glass… Not saying it’s impossible, but if glass fell out of a combination of neglect and gravity, wouldn’t it simply fall straight down into the scaffolding??

I saw that . . . a classic! She still has the same, um, characteristic smile . . .
Geez I just read down into the threads on this topic. . . . what a big ol' curmudgeonly diatribe! -
hubby used to live in Mrs. Nash's 2nd Street building many, many years ago and he said it was an, umm, experience....................

Would it be bad to make lil Esther my Profile/Avatar pic on here?
