June Lockhart, Lassie and Lost in Space Actress Who Was One of the Last
Surviving Stars from Hollywood's Golden Age, Dies at 100

Like Tuskegee Airmen and Navajo Code Talkers,
the Stars from Hollywood's Golden Age have
been bring obit pages a parade of Last Survivors.

Any idea when their timeline will be truly over?

I am waiting to hear that George Burns faked his death and that he is
alive and well somewhere working as a race car driver.

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.

To be quite honest I'd rather have Radio Row back.

Why stop there?...before radios were much of a thing the
neighborhood was "Little Syria".

But...with the Hudson Terminal towers setting the template,
the matched pair set the epic template that must be
reincarnated in place of the macabre trophy now defiling
the place.

It's true. But the gradual move from an ethnic neighborhood to Radio Row
was slow and took place from within, whereas the razing of Radio Row was relatively abrupt and took place due to outside forces.

I'm sorry, I always thought the two towers were kind of ugly, and they distract from the ESB. The ESB is the greatest building in the world and deserves to be the dominant spectacle in the NY skyline. (I do agree that
the current building is worse, though).

I did recently eat a Tony's Chocolonely bar and noticed the company address
was at 243 Canal St. Right where the guy with the shop full of tiny CRTs used to be.

Yuck...progress beyond the ESB is something to be relentlessly pursued.
I hope one day taller buildings surround it on every block.

But I also prefer that the tallest buildings be Downtown,and right
now Midtown is getting all the supertall action (175 and 350 Park
Avenue are going to have the tallest roofs,hundreds of feet above the
WTC level...I hope one bothers to add an observation deck above the
CN Tower's 1465-foot "Sky Pod" that has remained the tallest in North
America for decades.
