Arena foes: Where do Dem bigs stand?
NY Daily News
By Hugh Son
Where do the Democratic Mayoral candidates stand on Ratner's arena plans?
Despite the similarities between the West Side Stadium and Ratner's arena project (see DIRTY LAUNDRY LIST), Miller and Weiner have stated lukewarm support, while Ferrer and Fields have stated lukewarm opposition.
"They all need to get off the fence and take a firm position by looking deeply into the details of this project," said Daniel Goldstein of the anti-arena group Develop - Don't Destroy Brooklyn.
The group sent candidates letters this week demanding they oppose the Ratner project on the same grounds they oppose the West Side development.
