For years, industrial sites that once fueled the city’s economy have sat idle and deteriorating in and around residential areas. Now, the brownfields are presenting an opportunity for residents to re-invent their neighborhoods.
Perfectly healthy, but slow, racehorses are also sent of slaughter. I spent last weekend at a show jumping clinic with my friend and her lovely OTTB that was pulled from a kill lot. It is great to see the industry take responsibility for the horses when they retire. I hope the New York State Task Force on Retired Race Horses sets the model for other states and other breed groups to follow. Carole
