To the editor:
The Friday, July 16, front page of The Salem News featured another pretentious effort by certain business interests to celebrate Salem as a great, growing city.
There were even mentions of New York and San Francisco in comparison!
What's next for a tinsel-touched old lady that was once a real place?
If it isn't a fake artists' row, it's a new "LoLa" transformation for the area near the corner of Lafayette and Derby streets. You can only do so much with a mannequin.
