File Under: No Wonder New York City is Falling Behind London: Note to Mayor Bloomberg and Senator Schumer: The Sarbanes-Oxley Act isn’t the only reason why London is overtaking New York City. Note to the 34th Street Partnership and the Times Square Alliance: Hello?! What are you guys waiting for? You don’t have to look far for help. Note to Gwynneth Paltrow: I’m sad to say it but New York City’s leadership appears to be proving you right. [I understand that something perceived as a commuter tax will not fly in Albany, but it’s exactly that sort of thinking that got us where we are today. I have a fairly broad view of traffic and congestion as I use trains, walk, bike, and use a car in my commute in both NYC and the surrounding area. I can assure you that keeping cars out of the city is a good thing in almost every case.]
