New York City was
plunged into one of its
greatest fiscal crises. The
growing crime without
any control and large
businesses began their
march looking for new
locations. The whole
atmosphere was hurting
the image of New York
and tourism was
suffering accordingly.

Commerce
Department New York
State agency hired Wells
Rich Greene to develop a
marketing campaign for
the state of New York.

department, Milton

as a designer in the
campaign of Wells Rich
