That is just great news about Oprah coming to New York. Does Page Six know about this?
The apocalyptic future renderings are really bad. It appears that the illustrator has no idea how fast or how manmade structures deteriorate. The leaning Statue of Liberty would never be in that stage of completeness after all those years. It required major overhaul after 100 years, so how could it survive anything more than a few hundred years without maintenance. Artistic liberty is one thing but those time scales are way off. Where did all those fifty gallon drums come from in the early years?
