Central Park -> Manhattan Airport

“Public dollars helped create Central Park in the 1850s. And public responsibility dictates that we transform this underutilized asset into something we so desperately need today. Manhattan Airport will prove New York City no longer allows it’s vestigial prewar cityscape to languish in irrelevance but instead reinvents these spaces with a daring and inspired bravado truly befitting one of the world’s great cities.

Oh. Cool. You’ll have an awesome view of private jets landing from the front steps of the Guggenheim.

I am fully behind this vision, and am working hard to see that this project recieves all of the support it deserves.
