		+	== Draft notes ==
		+
		+	== This article is based on the major premise:— ==
		+
		+	* ... that Manhattan was part of the commons before 1609;
		+
		+	and the minor premise:—
		+
		+	* ... that the commons as a whole was depleted by the sale of Manhattan in 1609.
		+
		+	Thus it identifies a need, namely:—
		+
		+	* to replenish the missing part of the commons known as Manhattan;
		+
		+	and proposes a solution, namely:—
		+
		+	* ...
		+
		+	argues:—
		+
		+	* ... that Manhattan as it exists today is increasingly unsustainable.
		+
		+	and concludes:—
		+
		+	* ... that the depleted part of the commons named Manhattan can be returned to the commons.
		+
		+	Thus this article is divided into three overlapping time periods, namely:—
		+
		+	# Past
		+	# Present
		+	# Future
		+
		+	Its purpose is:—
		+
		+	* to recreate Manhattan as part of the commons.
		+
		+	-----
		+	This article assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that Manhattan was part of the commons before 1609;
		+	* ... that the commons as a whole was depleted by the sale of Manhattan in 1609.
		+
		+	It argues:—
		+
		+	* ... that Manhattan is a depleted part of the commons.
		+
		+	and concludes:—
		+
		+	* ... that Manhattan is likely to be returned to the commons.
		+
		+	Thus this article is divided into three overlapping time periods, namely:—
		+
		+	# Past
		+	# Present
		+	# Future
		+
		+	== Introduction ==
		+
		+	This article ... key terms as follows:—
		+
		+	(1) "The Commons" may be defined as:—
		+
		+	* "...the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture cultural] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nature natural] resources accessible to all members of a society, including natural materials such as air, water, and a habitable Earth."
		+	* (Unattributed, Wikipedia).
		+
		+	(2) "Manhattan" may be described as:—
		+
		+	* "...the most densely populated and geographically smallest of the five boroughs of New York City.
		+
		+	This article defines a social good as:—
		+
		+	* “inclusive (non-excludable); free; universally accessible; not for sale; not for privatization; and belonging to a commons”. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGIdcKcYpow Roth]]
		+
		+	This article assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that the commons is a resource to which the community has free access [3];
		+	* ... that Manhattan was part of the commons before 1609.
		+
		+	It also assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that social goods can be defined as “inclusive (non-excludable); free; universally accessible; not for sale; not for privatization; and belonging to a commons”. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGIdcKcYpow Roth]]
		+
		+	Thus
		+
		+	In September 1609, according
		+
		+	* "English explorer and navigator Henry Hudson discovered the island of Manhattan in the New World of North America. The exact day is unknown."
		+	* (Worldhistory)
		+
		+	In 1609, according to the history books, Manhattan was discovered by Henry Hudson.
		+
		+	On 5 November 1626, Pieter Jansz Schaghen wrote to the States General of the Dutch Republic announcing the purchase of Manhattan. [*]
		+
		+	In 1624, ... it was bought from
		+
		+	According to Wikipedia, Peter Minuit is generally credited with orchestrating the purchase of Manhattan Island for the Dutch East India Company from representatives of the Lenape, the area's indigenous people.
		+
		+	A common account states
		+
		+	* "... that (Peter) Minuit purchased Manhattan for $24 worth of trinkets. A letter written by Dutch merchant Peter Schaghen to directors of the Dutch East India Company stated that Manhattan was purchased for "60 guilders worth of trade",[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Minuit#cite_note-2 [1]] an amount worth ~$1,143 U.S. dollars as of 2020."
		+	* (Wikipedia)
		+
		+	-----
		+	This article assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that the commons is a resource to which the community has free access [3];
		+	* ... that Manhattan was part of the commons before 1609.
		+
		+	It also assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that social goods can be defined as “inclusive (non-excludable); free; universally accessible; not for sale; not for privatization; and belonging to (the) commons”. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGIdcKcYpow Roth], my amendment]
		+
		+	Thus this article argues:—
		+
		+	* ... that the commons in Manhattan has become depleted since 1609.
		+
		+	Its purpose is therefore:—
		+
		+	* to enable the community to have free access to the commons in Manhattan.
		+	* Elizabeth Diller ...
		+	* "A common account states that (Peter) Minuit purchased Manhattan for $24 worth of trinkets. A letter written by Dutch merchant Peter Schaghen to directors of the Dutch East India Company stated that Manhattan was purchased for “60 guilders worth of trade,” an amount worth approximately $1,143 in 2020 dollars." [3]
		+
		+	-----
		+	== Intro before synopsis edit ==
		+
		+	Firstly, this introduction cites Zhang's film - actually entitled 'Here Grows New York' - as an effective way of providing some historical background to the depletion of the commons in Manhattan. Zhang has also written about what he calls "the erosion of public space" with particular reference to Manhattan. [4]
		+
		+	Secondly, this article is based on two key assumptions, namely:—
		+
		+	# ... that the commons is a resource to which the community has free access [5];
		+	# ... that Manhattan was part of the commons before 1609.
		+
		+	It also assumes:—
		+
		+	* ... that social goods can be defined as “inclusive (non-excludable); free; universally accessible; not for sale; not for privatization; and belonging to (the) commons”. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGIdcKcYpow Roth], 5, my amendment]
		+
		+	Miles Zhang has also written about what he calls "the erosion of public space" with particular reference to Manhattan. [6]
		+
		+	Thus this article argues:—
		+
		+	* ... that public space is a social good and that its "erosion" in Manhattan represents a depletion of the commons.
		+
		+	The purpose here is:—
		+
		+	* to advocate a calculated expansion of the amount of public space in Manhattan and, consequently, a reconstruction of the commons.
