"With New York City's unemployment rate at a reported 8.9% and with under-employment estimated at 17%, many Cobble Hill residents have been affected by the economic downturn , especially with so many working in the fields of finance, media, and law that have been hard-hit," according to the Association's website.

Panelists include:

William S. Ross, Director of Development Marketing, Halstead Property
Henry Zook of BookCourt at 161-163 Court Street
Michelle Mannix of Ted & Honey cafe at 264 Clinton Street at Verandah Place
Lauren Young, Personal Finance Editor of BusinessWeek

The meeting will be held at Long Island College Hospital's Avram Conference Room A. 339 Hicks St. (at Atlantic Ave.) at 7:30 PM. Attendance is free and refreshments will be served.
