Daily News: Letter to the editor (Published)
More letters from Brooklynites were published in today's Daily News in response to Monday's Daily New editorial screed.
Crying foul ...
Brooklyn: The editorial on the Nets arena proposal ("A neighborhood
grows in Brooklyn," Oct. 24) fails to acknowledge that opposition to
the project dates to 2003, when it was made public. A project of this
size causes problems that can cost the city and state huge sums of
money. Bruce Ratner's company assumes no financial ability if it
fails. The opponents are fighting for the people of the whole state.

Brooklyn: Re "A neighborhood grows in Brooklyn": A neighborhood
already exists in Brooklyn. In fact, many neighborhoods exist in
Brooklyn. The people you disparage love and respect Brooklyn
neighborhoods and their neighbors. They are fighting to save civil
rights: the right to own property, the right to freedom of speech and
the right to a democratic process.
