Occupy Wall Street Is Now Occupy Union Square!

Downtown can breath easier now that the movement has shifted uptown to New York University region, Union Square. It’s almost like watching an old movie seeing hippies protesting against the government’s invasion of Vietnam. People camped outside on the park exercised their freedom of speech vocally and by signage. Some took the liberty of bringing in food and water to the protesters. I have never seen anything quite like it before. Of course, there were many of New York’s Finest (NYPD) patrolling the area making sure nothing was out of the ordinary. God forbid it broke out and resulted into major looting of stores! Shoemania store is right across the park! Need I say more?

Union Square is home to a lot of major brands targeting student dollars in the neighborhood among many other things. So where next is “Occupy Wall Street” going to go? Park Avenue perhaps? Now that will get a lot of Chanel clad old monies dialing the Mayor within a hot NY minute!
