That's the spirit. Staten Island is at least the
fastests growing borough (at last check), so that's something that could probably change things down the line. I do recall reading something about an art scene in SI, but it's not clear to me now. And there was the proposed NASCAR track in the borough - that would have been something unique for the city. But the NIMBYs were so against it, and the site is now being proposed as a
shopping mall.
