Is Simon Doonan on Law & Order now ?

From today's New York Times:

Man Found Fatally Shot on Platform in Chelsea

By MICHAEL BRICK and JANON FISHER

Published: February 20, 2005

Subway passengers found a young man dying from a gunshot wound inside a station in the Chelsea section of Manhattan yesterday morning, the police said.

A law enforcement official identified the man as Germon Cabrera, 26. He was found lying on his back on the southbound platform of the No. 1 and 9 trains at the West 18th Street station, the police said, and was wearing a black leather jacket and a dark blue shirt, with his legs crumpled beneath him.

Pretty sad story right? However if you keep reading the style mavens at the NY Times just had to put this quote in there to give the whole story a glaze of style and luxury. Was i reading an obituary or the real estate section.....

"There's a Barney's warehouse sale right around the corner," said Eva Churchill, 28, a graduate student who lives in Harlem. "It's Chelsea, it's fancy here."
