George,
I wanted to write a quick thank you for your work in putting out WestView News. The people can have their Journal or their ‘Gray Lady,’ but I’ll take the stack of papers with the dark beige font. I particularly enjoy “Then & Now,” the pieces on local politics, and “In and Out.”
I think the most common misconception about New York is that it’s a bunch of high rises with abstract people walking around, lacking communities. Rather, it is comprised of pockets of distinct neighborhoods. Admittedly, many of these localities are clinging on to their communal feel, an issue your paper deals with every month. But you and your team do your part to make the West Village feel like a real home, so thank you.
