A Ratner Haggadah

The Brooklyn Papers

Several objectors to Bruce Ratner’s mega-development penned an anti-Ratner parody of the Jewish Haggadah and used it at Seders this week.

In this “Very Brooklyn Haggadah,” the four questions ["To be sung by the youngest real estate developer at the seder."] don’t include, “Why is this night different from all other nights?” but, rather, “Why is it that in all other projects, buildings stand straight, but in Frank Gehry’s designs, the buildings recline to one side?”

There’s also a raucous, Ratner-ripping version of the classic Passover song, “Dayeinu” — which means “enough.” (For the full Haggadah, see www.leathertomato.com.)
