Faneuil Hall Operator Bankrupt

General Growth Properties, whose "growth" we've criticized before, has filed for bankruptcy. The City of Boston owns the property; GGP was just leasing and operating it. The bankruptcy will require the city to take a larger role in managing Faneuil. This town just can't get by without all those touristy kiosks and Urban Outfitters, so we hope the city manages the marketplace well.
