Letter of the Day (Dec. 2): Zygi's new digs

(Susan Hogan — Star Tribune/The Minnesota Star Tribune)

A note to Zygi and Audrey Wilf: Bad timing on the purchase of your new $19 million "Zen-like retreat" on prestigious Park Avenue in Manhattan.

You are asking our cities, counties and state to cough up $600 million to build a workplace for your millionaire employees ... while you, the ringleader of this operation, don't even live here!

And apparently where you do live, there is no limit on what you can spend.

You have proven to us that you are not a Viking, nor a Gopher, nor a Miller, nor a Saint. You are a very rich "New Yawker" trying to get the rubes of Minnesota to finance your already overly profitable business.

Very bad timing.

DAVE ARUNDEL, TONKA BAY
