Tuesday Transverses

That's my best shot at coming up with an alliteration for links around the blogosphere and what not today. There's so much happening with a ton of great writing, so I'll shush (for a moment that is) and link you to all these spots.

  • Philip at The Albany Project hits the proverbial nail on the head when it comes to Wall Street's ridiculous bonuses while the rest of the economy continues to collapse.
  • Tom Kean Jr. smacks Rudy hard by endorsing his foe John McCain. Remember Kean was the top Republican on the 9/11 commission. For someone that is solely running on 9/11, thats gotta hurt.
  • The last private island in the East River was sold to the government. The company that bought it paid $10 to the city in the 70s, they got $2 million this week, now that's a profit margin!
  • Too busy to head to 43rd and Vanderbilt to see the designs laid out for Hudson Yards? Let Curbed takes you on a video tour of the place. Be prepared to sing hallelujah!
  • And finally, we've all seen many traditional Christmas trees large and small, but this one at the American Natural History Museum adds a little Japanese art into the mix.
