AGC Working To Help NYC Printers

NEW YORK—The affects felt by Manhattan-area printers, as well as all metro area companies, following the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center towers were, to say the least, devastating.

According to Vicki Keenan, vice president of public affairs for the Association of Graphic Communications (AGC), the PIA affiliate representing New York City and northern New Jersey, upwards of 30 area printers have been greatly affected in the aftermath of the attacks. Those most impacted are located on Canal Street, as well as the Hudson/Varick areas, and those based near the foot of the Holland Tunnel. She noted that the AGC hasn't been able to contact a few printers on West Street.
