Macy's has just declared bankruptcy, Citicorp has lost almost a billion and a half dollars in the last six months, local unemployment has topped 10 percent, and shuttered storefronts dot local shopping districts.Into the midst of this dismal situation comes yours truly, trying to find (of all things) a location for a film shoot.
