Defined as "progress".
Fresh out of high school, in 1960, I hired on with a snapper boat. 90% of all I caught was on the way to FFM before the day was done, and my income depended on the price they would pay. Imagine, fresh Red Snapper, .28 per pound, .10 for prime Grouper!
It was great adventure, but no way to make a living.
I would do it again, I'm still a damn fool!
If I remember correctly the Fulton Fish market is in the Hunts Point section of the Bronx. So it sounds like they are just moving to newer digs nearby. The Mob will still run it, and within a week it will smell the same as it always did, so I don't see that very much has changed.
