News of Queen Elizabeth's health is sending shockwaves not just through England but also here in New York City. TimMcNicholas has more from Greenwich Village.
As CBS2's Tim McNicholas reported, it's a solemn day at Tea & Sympathy in Greenwich Village. The British restaurant and shop is where royal enthusiasts often go to celebrate major events, like the queen's platinum jubilee earlier this summer.
Queen Elizabeth last visited New York City in 2010, when she addressed the United Nations and laid a wreath in memory of 9/11 victims at the Ground Zero site. "Really sad. Desperately hoping she's going to be OK. She's been such a fantastic monarch, leader of the country, inspiration," he told McNicholas."I think more than any of the royals, since she really displays a concept of noblesse oblige. With a position, goes the responsibility."
