Salt soars in Lower Manhattan

Nearly six years after the trauma and devastation of the terrorist attack that destroyed New York City's two largest office skyscrapers, the shape of the $30 billion redevelopment of the area is becoming clear and exciting.

Is there a "salt" angle to this? Yes.

Visit Manhattan by 2011 and see the uplifting photos of the new Lower Manhattan. But LISTEN to the uplifting theme music for the photo presentation. It is the Simone Lo Porto song "Fiume di Sale", winner of the recent "In The Name of Salt" competition sponsored by NYC artist Bettina Werner, "The Salt Queen."

We can think of no more uplifting theme. Congratulations to New York City's resolute leaders, to Simone Lo Porto and to "The Salt Queen."
