Henry Buhl -- the little gray hair man that resembles Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs over seeing his slaves...oops low paid ACE foundation workers and others doing his dirty work moving his illegal planters back in the designated spots Henry Buhl originally dropped the illegal planters to prevent Veteran Vendors and Artist from setting up their tables where they have for years.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbityDLJTdg&feature=share&list=UUmCef-t72tojrbQ3d8UW2LA Link to video -- in case the video has been changed.
Henry Buhl was named in at least 1 possibly 2 lawsuits re: The Vesco Scandals which was the Bernie Madoff scandals of the 70's?
Do the press with the exception of WPIX stay away from this issue and why. At the end of a 9 1/2 video you may hear answers you don't want to hear but the reality is these planters were illegally dropped by this man using ACE foundation as backdrop. (Note Sept 28: Video shows Mercer Hotel involvement coming soon) Dept of Transportation confirms they are illegal as does Community Board 2 yet the planters sit there.
The NYPD 01 says not there problem but question -- if OWS dropped these planters would they have sat there July, Aug., Sept. and it is almost October.
Heard on the street === Henry Buhl confident he has the NYPD at his beck and call and will have the NYPD harshly enforce any petty rule starting with a measuring tape from the door ways.
Again rules put in place by rich people to displace poor and middle class and yet DOT and NYPD seem to give Buhl and his planters special grace periods and the opposite of OWS treatment? Unemployment over 10 percent and as high as 17 percent. Soho is a tourist spot and these vendors have been here for years but Henry Buhl and a few well to do white people want many minority people treated as criminals when they are not and many are Veterans like the 2 that alerted the NYPD to the Times Square Bomb....
they want them removed....they will give money to ACE to get any and all perks from NYC gov and the ego massage -- Henry Buhl uses Ace workers as his low wage accomplices unknowingly helping him move illegal planters to make Veterans and Artist homeless.
