Interesting to learn of yet another angle on New York corruption. The Hudson Valley still has the ruins of massive ice houses along the Hudson where ice from lakes and the river was stored in the winter and sent to NYC year round. A substantial industry.

Thanks, Jack! I hadn't known about the ice house ruins. Your comment prompted me to do a quick Google search, which brought up this:

Wonderful excerpt.
Enjoyed learning the history, too.
Thanks, Denise. Stay cool!
