    Curfew extended until June 7. Time to revoke the Sullivan Act.

    The whole neighborhood is being looted and wrecked. I never thought I would say it but I am now quite happy that the real estate developers gentrified me out of the East Village a long time ago. Wonder how those real estate building investments are going to go now ?

      The developers arent going to be the ones suffering. Long term residents who have managed to hold onto their homes here despite the odds will though. I am afraid that we will see a new wave of opportunistic gentrification in the coming year.

    EV Grieve,

    I would like to help local businesses clean up. Is there any information regarding who needs help or how to help?
