THE PRESIDENT WHO WOULD BE LEGISLATOR: DÉJÀ VU ON THE UPPER WEST SIDE. Exclusive @WestSideSpirit reports @galeabrewer eyeing return to the City Council seat she held for 12 years, a job she loved. With fewer constituents, lower pay and lesser influence https://t.co/8zO2rybiLe

@merlelynn -- HELLO, I'm a reporter w/ The West Side Spirit writing a political story about the prospect that Gale Brewer will run for her old seat, now the Rosenthal seat, when she's term-limited out in 2021. Can you please call me at 212-868-0190, ext 413, thanks / Best, Doug

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

@elieseid Lucette Lagnado (my wife) thank you a million times for the reference to 'Sharkskin' in your Fast Company interview!

"Bedpan Alley" is on the move. @OurTownNYC exclusively reports
https://t.co/hnAGtE4gGx how a medical school bought a church on the
Upper East Side -- and the church used the cash to buy another church.
Thus in two transformational real estate deals, Yorkville was changed
forever.

WHAT HATH THE Q TRAIN WROUGHT? -- HOW THE SUBWAY IMPACTS THE SOUL OF YORKVILLE

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

It was one of America's most unpopular wars. But that doesn't make the soldiers who fought it any less honorable, heroic or humane: @HudsonWarehouse is marking Veterans Day w real-life stories of Vietnam at @ArtsatGoddard as chronicled in @WestSideSpirit / https://t.co/N4YhUdcyHL

It's 2018, yet the NYC Board of Elections is up to its old tricks --

[Simone Weichselbaum @SimoneJWei]

Poll workers telling voters at 351 East 61 in Manhattan to wait on this long “scanner line” or follow the “emergency procedure”. Leave our used ballot behind, and a mystery person will scan it later. DONT DO THE LATTER cc:@nypost @NYDailyNews @NY1 @WNYC @NYTMetro

“We live the exact values the assailant repudiated." Confronting horror and hate with soul searching and hope, the great synagogues of the UES, UWS and Downtown grapple w/ the massacre of Jewish innocents in Pittsburgh: https://t.co/HVegt5G5uS in @WestSideSpirit and @OurTownNYC

HOUSES OF WORSHIP THAT THINK ABOUT THE UNTHINKABLE

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Boatloads of East Siders commute by ferry on the East River as West Siders go nowhere fast on the Hudson -- a transit backwater, a RIVER OF NO RESPECT. But an empty berth is available at 125th Street. A tale of 2 rivers https://t.co/lfcr8btg3q in @OurTownNYC and @WestSideSpirit

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

The school that time forgot, PS 290 on the UES, has no gym or designated space for play or recess. So 3rd- 4th- and 5th-graders are forced to exercise on E 82nd St @OurTownNYC reports that the PTA want to get the kids of the street. And up to the rooftop https://t.co/enQN9ATMql

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Cynthia Nixon trounced Andrew Cuomo -- in 2 square blocks between 10th and 12th Streets in the Village. She also triumphed in a landslide -- on Bleecker, Carmine and Cornelia Streets @OurTownNYC & @WestSideSpirit present the election returns you never saw https://t.co/08i3uhaHwM

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

@SimoneJWei @OurTownNYC Looking forward to crossing paths with you again at Java Girl!

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

John Jay Park has been a godsend on the UES for 100-plus years. Now, it's a battlefield. At issue: Should a corner of the oasis morph into a serene space for seniors or an active exercise yard for the young & fit? @OurTownNYC plumbs the dueling visions: https://t.co/N6dz0SuGd7

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Wow! The new UES ferry lines are glorious, the views breathtaking. The problem: If you're old, infirm or frail, scaling the pitched slope w/ 70-plus steps to reach the E 90th St landing is no picnic. @OurTownNYC takes you on the tough slog to a fast ferry https://t.co/IlPFTqjQNq

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

One UES political club was founded on May 23rd. The other back in 1956. And the birth of the upstart @eastriverdems played a role in the near-death experience of @LenoxHillDC, its hallowed older rival @OurTownNYC chronicles Life and Loss in the Club Scene https://t.co/itSLXcN44a

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Very rare in NYC politics to see a candidate who answers to two names. But @EliotRabinForUS, aka Peter Elliot, is not your conventional GOP contender. @OurTownNYC explores the UES clothier's dual identities https://t.co/SAvHzTVO5T and his quixotic bid to topple @CarolynBMaloney

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Wags for decades have counted out Manhattan's old-fashioned Democratic political clubhouses. BAD IDEA! https://t.co/6FkpRHh8Jw Now, 10 of them are hunting for a winner in the AG race between @TishJames @ZephyrTeachout, @LeeciaEve as first reported in @WestSideSpirit & @OurTownNYC

[Douglas Feiden @DougFeiden]

Think economists, statisticians and bankers don't have a sense of humor? WRONG! They can be playful, mirthful and droll. Consider a @NewYorkFed social media campaign to welcome their new boss https://t.co/KeRZ1ZeKaa as first reported in @OTDowntown, @WestSideSpirit & @OurTownNYC
