The new Mayor DeBlasio said he was going to take out traffic islands...but I did not believe that meant established, traffic calming islands with trees and plants that provided a small piece of nature in a sea of asphalt. This is a very sad state of affairs.

We have a Pocket Prairie Poached Plant Problem. Life is tough for a Pocket Prairie in New York City. Someone pulled out a patch of the New England Aster flowers. It's possible to think of this act as a high compliment but truthfully it's REALLY annoying and sad. I will try and get replacements in soon. The bare soil looks...well, bare!
