The first snow of the season in New York has come at what is genuinely the most perfect possible moment for it: Sunday morning at the end of the month’s busiest week of Christmas parties, when the whole city has a hangover and needs to start thinking about getting the suitcases out of the closet

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

Incredible piece on Oliver Sacks. If you were ever awed at his supposedly true stories (I remember being stunned by the account of the autistic twins who rattled off large prime numbers), read this. He told wonderful stories, but they were in large part fiction.

Bruce kicked off the holiday season in a lasting way, on this day 50 years ago, performing “Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town” at C.W. Post during the “Born to Run” tour — a bit of concert magic that grew into the holiday tradition we know today.

Happy Holidays from everyone on E Street!

Our EasyPark report got mentioned in the New York Times!

How to pay for free buses? Easy: "The good news is that the city already owns an asset worth at least that much every single year, which we simply give away. We walk past it every day: the curb."
