Hoping the city (cough, BLOOMBERG, cough) will recognize the village for the historical significance it represents and quickly.
Naturally they were screwed out of the cost of their home prices, somethings never change.

They where digging a new foundation in Manhatten the other day and they discovered a slave cemetary there. May their souls rest easy now that lenching is frowned upon and we've moved on to the electric chair. And I wonder who's gona be president tweedle dumb or tweedle dumber? And who's gona have the big block buster this summer? How bout we put up a wall between the houses and the highway and then you can go your way and I can go my way?
