Manhattan Borough President Replies to Harpo Marx' Son's Request

As you may recall, Harpo Marx' son Bill wrote to Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer asking him to intervene and vacate the invalid July 21 NYC Community Board 8 vote on Marx Brothers Place.

After hearing back from the Borough President's office, Bill Marx forwarded the BP's reply on to us: Essentially, while the BP's office expressed its ongoing interest in the 93rd Street Beautification Association's preservation efforts, the letter indicated that the BP's hands are tied when it comes to undoing a CB8 vote and that the best avenue for redress would be to ask CB8 to vacate its own vote.

So, following the BP's lead, the 93rd Street Beautification Association has asked CB8 to vacate the invalid July 21 vote.

And now we need to ask you to let CB8 know that it should do the right thing by tossing the tainted vote and restoring the 93rd Street Beautification Association's Request to CB8's calendar as soon as possible before any more historic structures on Marx Brothers Place are forever lost to the wrecking ball.
