    Why don’t you wait until the City Council votes before you decide the scenario is getting old? You might be right; Levin might push for a middle ground that satisfies few. Or you might be making an assumption prematurely.

    Video of the entire three-hour October 5 hearing is posted in the “multimedia” column of the subcommittee’s webpage at:

    I’m not wanting that. I am only saying, the newbies just don’t know how nice they have it.

    How many times do you
    have to be hit in the head
    before you realize these are
    not the good guys.
    This is not the first time for
    Levin or colleagues.
    But, if you enjoy being
    smacked in the head don’t
    let me interfere with your
    entertainment.

    The “love locks” left by amorous couples on the Brooklyn Bridge have all been removed, and signs warning of a $100 fine for people caught in the act are in place. Brooklyn Eagle article here:

    Sure, I wasn’t implying anything about your intentions, just riffing on a phrase people like to use. :)

    WHAT!?! That is insane!!! Another 3+ million into it? Tear it down and let the North Heights stay a peaceful place.

    Tearing it down would probably cost 5+ million.
