Wall Street revenues (and overall tax revenues from NYC) are expected to be down a great deal this year. Many parts of upstate NY are in very bad shape, so not much tax revenue coming from there either.


While our property taxes are ridiculous, they aren't enough to bail us out of the mess the markets are in now.
