Download or read book The Assassination of New York written by Robert Fitch and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of how the richest city in the world became one of the poorest in North America, with a new introduction by Peter Kwong How did New York City come to be a network of steel towers, banks, and nail salons, with chain drugstores on every block—a place where, increasingly, no one can afford to live except the lords of Wall Street and foreign billionaires, and where more and more of the Big Apple’s best-loved businesses have closed their doors? It didn’t start with Michael Bloomberg—or with Robert Moses. As Robert Fitch meticulously demonstrates in this eye-opening book, the planning to assassinate New York began a century ago, as the city’s very richest few—the Morgans, the Mellons, and especially the Rockefellers—looked for ways to maximize the value of their real estate by pushing Gotham’s vibrant and astonishingly varied manufacturing sector out of town, and with it, the city’s working class. The Assassination of New York attacks a Goliath-like enemy: the real-estate developers who maintain a stranglehold on the city’s most valuable commodity. Their efforts to increase land value by replacing low-rent workers and factories with high-rent professionals and office buildings was one of the single most decisive factors in the city’s downturn. In the 1980s the number of real-estate vacancies eclipsed that of the fiscal crisis of the 1970s. In September of 1992 there was a staggering twenty-five million square feet of empty office space. Are the city’s problems fixable? How will the future of New York play out through the twenty-first century? Fitch comes up with solutions, from saving jobs to promoting economic diversity to rebuilding the crumbling infrastructure. But it will take vision and hard work to restore New York to what it once was while creating a new and better home for coming generations.

Book excerpt: Journey back in time as author Bill Lewers puts you on the floor of New York's Madison Square Garden in the midst of one of the most remarkable political events in our nation's history! The year is 1924. Claudia Burnham, cub reporter for the Washington Chronicle and alternate delegate for the state of Virginia, is heading to New York City to cover the Democratic National Convention. There, armed with only her charm, wits, and can-do attitude, she must navigate the male-dominated worlds of journalism and politics. Once in New York, she is promoted to full delegate only to discover that advancement and conscience don't always go hand-in-hand. As a reporter she looks on as forces as diverse as Prohibition, the League of Nations, and the Ku Klux Klan threaten to rip the Democratic Party apart. At the same time a multitude of candidates vie for support as the convention descends into a deadlocked nightmare that goes on and on, ballot after ballot, day after day. Party leaders search desperately for a way out of the impasse while Claudia reports on every development, scheme, and rumor that takes place, both on and off the convention floor. Claudia would like to help resolve the situation but as a lone delegate, closely monitored by her leaders, she is powerless to do so. Or is she?
