Law will soon require many NYC businesses to replace roll-down gates (youtube.com)
Will cost little businesses $10k to replace their current regular gates, which work well, with gates that are 70% transparent. If you think graffiti is bad on metal gates (which is the government's reason to replace the metal ones), wait till the spray is on the glass, right? Shop owners are worried people will break their glass.
Maybe anyone in government could be required to keep a certain percentage of their assets in a shop like this, and have to maintain it.
