Losing battle for NYC streets: Goodwin
NY Post
It’s an observation that defines an entire misbegotten era in New York. It comes from Marko Majic, head of business development for City Jeans on East Fordham Road in The Bronx.
“It looks like a bazaar in Istanbul,” he told The Post. “The only difference is in Istanbul it’s legal and organized and here it is illegal and unorganized.” Majic was talking about the explosion of street vendors in his neighborhood who hawk an endless array of products and even set up three-card monte games. One official counted 242 vendors in an area that has 230 storefronts.More Related News
