What can you do protest the monstrously inappropriate billboard that Hotel Gansevoort is erecting? Call the Hotel Gansevoort as many times as you can at 212/206-6700 and 877/426-7386 (toll free) to let the hotel know that you are outraged about the billboards on Hudson Street and want them removed. If they try to [...]
