Question for old farts that lived in NYC in the late 60's and 70's [View all]
I worked in NYC back in 1969-71.
I used to read the Village Voice all the time and even got a subscription sent to me when I was back in Arkansas.
It seems to me that I remember a series of stories about tenement owners setting fire to their buildings even when people were inside to be able to rebuild new buildings that could be rented for more money.
I was wondering if it is a fake memory. If real, could those have been Trump buildings?
