Mr. New York, Marks Among.

The Voice of New York, 710, W-O-R.

Well, lots to get to this hour.

What's going on in New York, crime-wise?

We'll get to that coming up.

We'll get to Joe Biden and the border. We'll get to the

congestion pricing. Hey, we'll get the latest on Israel

coming up a little later this hour. And what's going to

happen there this coming year? Broadway

has taken a big hit. Businesses

down dramatically, almost a 20% drop in business.

Now, you've got to remember a few things.

One, you don't have all of the Broadway shows that you normally have.

You got less activity on Broadway than usual, less big shows than usual.

But the problem is, and you may not realize this broadway is really dependent on tourists and suburbanites

the people that actually live right here aren't the big Broadway customers it's uh you know

everybody pays for their Broadway ticket with a credit card and the credit cards have zip codes on

them so they now they just simply look at the metrics.

How many people have bought tickets live within five miles,

how many live within 25 miles,

and the bulk of the business comes from the suburbs and the tourists from far away.

Well, suburbanites are very important to Broadway.
