Brooklyn's Railyards: The Fight Continues
The NY Times published four letters (click link and scroll down) in response to the November 27 article, "A Matter of Scale in Brooklyn."
Topics covered are: * bypass of any local or legislative approval processes, * importance of city planning debate (as opposed to "scale"), * housing and * concerns over a Brooklyn luxury housing glut.
No action by The NY Times goes unanswered by TimesRatnerReporter Norman Oder, who points out (again!) that the project isn't just over the railyards (see headline and Jay Weiser's letter) and that there was no mention of the costs of the project (the arena would be the most expensive, ever).
