Roger Green's Version

The Real Estate Observer
By Matthew Schuerman

Back in November Roger Green told Observer reporter Matthew Schuerman:

"I didn't sign the C.B.A. and that was intentional, because my position was that my ultimate endorsement on behalf of this project would be the state legislation, the legislation that would authorize the resources that they would need to complete this project."

Back in January, Green claimed he was working on comprehensive legislation that would address density, traffic and "vegetative rooftops."

Today, at the eleventh hour before the State budget is approved, Green is about to "lose a very powerful means of leveraging any change" to the Atlantic Yards project.

But don't worry, he still plans to "introduce the green roofs and traffic bills."
