Excellent article - thanks for posting Patcat.
" Thomas A. Reppetto, a police historian and author, said the diversification of the department was consistent with the age-old trend of new immigrants supplanting the old. “That is the story of New York,” he said. “It has always been an immigrant city, and eventually the new immigrants are reflected in the municipal work force.” "
Very insightful comments and some time ago I watched a documentary on the building of the NY skyscrapers - amazing.
