An interesting example of forward-thinking...
I wasn't aware that NYC is supposed to grow by 1 million people in the next decade or so. That's a lot of people. A lot of kids, a lot of employees, of employers, a lot of breakfast sandwiches and cups of coffee, a lot of empty coffee cups and a lot more people that in general need entertaining. This article, The Future of New York City: A vision of 2016 provides an interesting thought experiment. I find it somehwat reassuring that city planners and officials at least seem to be trying to get themselves, and the city, prepared for the increasing population, instead of panicking when it becomes a reality.
