Epstein scandal broadens as trove of letters from famous figures published
The long-running scandal surrounding the disgraced late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein broadened on Tuesday after the New York Times published a trove of previously unseen letters to Epstein from numerous powerful figures as well as unseen photographs from inside his Manhattan mansion. The letters, written to Epstein by a number of high-profile individuals, were reportedly compiled as a birthday gift for Epstein's 63rd birthday in 2016. Their publication comes amid intense speculation around Donald Trump's ties to Epstein, who was found dead in a New York jail in 2019 and had long cultivated a celebrity social circle of the rich and powerful. In one letter, former prime minister of Israel Ehud Barak and his wife wrote 'there is no limit to your curiosity.' Related: US House panel subpoenas Bill and Hillary Clinton for Epstein testimony 'You are like a closed book to many of them but you know everything about everyone,' they wrote, describing Epstein as 'A COLLECTOR OF PEOPLE'. They continued: 'May you enjoy long and healthy life and may all of us, your friends, enjoy your table for many more years to come.' In a letter from film-maker Woody Allen, Allen reminisced about Epstein's dinner parties at his Upper East Side townhouse and described the gatherings as 'always interesting'. He noted that the parties included 'politicians, scientists, teachers, magicians, comedians, intellectuals, journalists' and 'even royalty'. Allen also described the dinners as 'well served': 'I say well served – often it's by some professional houseman and just as often by several young women' who he said reminded him of 'Castle Dracula where Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place.' Other letter writers reportedly included billionaire media mogul Mortimer Zuckerman; Noam Chomsky and his wife; Joichi Ito, the former head of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab; physicist Lawrence M Krauss; and Harvard biologist and mathematician Martin Nowak. Allen, Ito, Zuckerman and Nowak did not respond to requests for comment from the Times. Barak reportedly declined to comment, and Chomsky's wife responded on his behalf, also declining to comment. Krauss reportedly told the Times that he didn't recall the letter but did attend 'several lunches with very interesting discussions' with scientists, authors and others at Epstein's house. In addition to the letters, the Times also published photos from inside Epstein's seven-story Manhattan mansion. In his office, the images show a taxidermied tiger and reportedly show a green first edition copy of Lolita – the controversial 1955 novel about a middle-aged man's sexual obsession with and sexual abuse and rape of a 12-year-old girl – which the Times said was 'showcased'. Surveillance cameras can be seen in Epstein's bedroom and an adjoining room. In his 'massage room', where many underaged victims said that they were sexually assaulted by Epstein, the Times reports that there were paintings of naked women, shelves of lubricant, and a large silver ball and chain. Elsewhere in the house, dozens of framed photographs show Epstein pictured alongside longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking. They also pictured Epstein with notable figures such as Pope John Paul II, Mick Jagger, Elon Musk, Fidel Castro, Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Richard Branson, Saudi Arabia crown prince Mohammed bin Salman and former Trump White House adviser, Steve Bannon. One frame also displayed a dollar bill signed by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates with the message 'I was wrong!' which the Times said was 'possibly as payment of a bet'. The Times also reported that the home's entryway featured framed prosthetic eyeballs, and that a suspended sculpture of a woman wearing a bridal gown and clutching a rope hung in the central atrium. According to the Times, a map of Israel drawn on a chalkboard that had the signature of former Israeli prime minister Barak was also in the home. Epstein died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. His death was ruled a suicide. The renewed scrutiny into Epstein's case comes as Trump and members of his administration had repeatedly vowed to release information related to the Epstein investigations. But in July, the administration reversed course, and the justice department announced it would not release any further documents or details regarding the case, prompting bipartisan outrage, including from Trump supporters and conservative media figures. Epstein's case has long been the subject of countless conspiracy theories, in part due to his ties to powerful people. His 2019 suicide has also fueled conspiracy theories for years. The justice department's recent announcement also reignited scrutiny of Trump's years-long friendship with Epstein. In July, the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump allegedly wrote Epstein a birthday card as part of a 50th birthday album organized by Maxwell in 2003. According to the report, Trump's letter featured a sketch of a naked woman with Trump's signature. Trump denied the Journal's report and sued the newspaper for libel. Around a week layer, the Journal reported that justice department officials had informed Trump earlier this year that his name appeared in the Epstein files. The paper noted that being mentioned in the records isn't a sign of wrongdoing. Trump's spokesperson denied the report, calling it 'fake news'. Facing growing pressure, the justice department sent Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general and one of Trump's former lawyers, to meet with Maxwell in late July to see whether she had 'information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims'. The meeting, which lasted two days, was held behind closed doors. On Friday, Maxwell was transferred from a Florida prison to a lower-security facility in Texas. Solve the daily Crossword

Wagner Park's disastrous eco-zealot makeover is an insult to downtown New York City
The 'new' Wagner Park in Battery Park City opened this week after a two-year closure and a nearly $300 million redesign. But New Yorkers should howl to the moon — and to the state legislature in Albany — over the desecration of a public jewel, done to suit the agenda of environmental zealots egged on by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo. It's the most rotten Lower Manhattan scam since hustlers sold 'tickets' to the free Staten Island Ferry — only the warped park's victims aren't tourists but Wagner Park's millions of annual users, most of them New Yorkers. The original Wagner Park, near Battery Park City's southern tip, opened in 1996 to universal acclaim. New York Times architectural critic Paul Goldberger called it 'one of the finest public spaces New York has seen in at least a generation.' Advertisement 7 Wagner Park's once-level, river-facing side swelled into a stepped cliff of wooden, bleacher-like seats in an effort to prevent flooding that some feel went too far. Tamara Beckwith Battery Park City residents as well as New Yorkers from every part of town and tourists agreed. They fell in love with the 3.5-acre oasis' peaceful, river-fronting lawns that were ideal for sunbathing and taking in views of the harbor and the Statue of Liberty. A popular Italian restaurant buzzed indoors and outdoors with happy sun-worshippers and sightseers. Now, they're all gone in the name of 'saving' the park from a mythical flood that exists only in its designers' imaginations. Advertisement The state-controlled Battery Park City Authority is, naturally, trying to cosmeticize the debacle with promises of future outdoor arts programs and hype over four planted 'ecological zones' that merely take space away from the original lawns. We're meant to be impressed by an 'integrated flood barrier system' that 'maximizes water capture and reuse,' a 63,000-gallon underground cistern for rainwater reuse, 'flip-up deployables' (whatever they are), sustainable materials, native plantings and 'lush gardens planted with native, salt-resistant species.' 7 The park's central area was elevated 10 feet in order to conceal a buried flood wall. Tamara Beckwith 7 Much of the lawn was sliced and diced into a ziggurat of paver-surfaced ramps and stairs that have no clear entry points. Tamara Beckwith Advertisement But park-goers know otherwise. Novelist Jon Pepper, a Battery Park City resident, said the new pavilion — slightly larger than the original one and relocated to the east — 'looks like bunkers on the Maginot Line,' a reference to France's WWII defense that failed to stop the Nazi advance. Say this for the builders: They delivered, on time and within budget, precisely the lousy product that BPCA brochures promised. Mature London plane trees were uprooted. The park's central area was elevated 10 feet in order to conceal a buried flood wall.

Advertisement 7 Jon Pepper, a Battery Park City resident, said Wagner Park's new pavilion 'looks like bunkers on the Maginot Line,' a reference to France's WWII defense that failed to stop the Nazi advance. Tamara Beckwith The park's once-level, river-facing side swelled into a stepped cliff of wooden, bleacher-like seats where I saw precious few users on two sunny afternoons this week. The revamped lawn is, on paper, only slightly smaller than the original one. But it's effectively much smaller due to the way it's segmented into landscaped portions that aren't conducive to lazing and lolling. The modest concession building on the park's eastern side gave way to a lumbering red-brick structure that looms over the lawns' remnants like an intergalactic invader. 7 New Yorkers fell in love with the 3.5-acre former oasis' peaceful, river-fronting lawns that were ideal for sunbathing and taking in views of the harbor and the Statue of Liberty. Helayne Seidman 7 The park's old, expansive lawn spaces were conducive to lolling and lazing. Gabriella Bass The BPCA put out a 'request for proposals' to operate a two-level, 5,000-square-foot restaurant — one-third larger than previous license holder Gigino's. The greater number of seats, combined with the pavilion's 'community center' and rooftop viewing area, will shatter Wagner Park's low-key ambience that was at the heart of its charm. How did this all happen? Advertisement Besides enriching a legion of architects, engineers and landscape designers, the mutant 'park' is supposed to protect against a theoretical, worse-than-worst case, one-day-or-someday '100-year' flood caused by rising sea levels. In fact, no such catastrophe has ever occurred. The original park was so securely engineered that Wagner Park suffered no damage whatsoever when superstorm Sandy caused the city's highest sea level rise ever recorded. 7 Locals led a fight to save the old Wagner Park that ultimately failed. Gabriella Bass All of landfill-based Battery Park City was designed to withstand any conceivable high water. Which was why, as New York Magazine reported and illustrated, the entire three-mile long complex 'shone brightly' after Sandy while most of the rest of Manhattan was dark. Local residents fought fiercely against losing their beloved oasis, but in the end, the 'resiliency' lobby of climate-change alarmists carried the day. Of course, New Yorkers don't want a woke lesson in saving the earth. They want a park easy to love — which, at Wagner Park, will live only in memory.
