Ratner’s assembly buddies
Brooklyn Papers rounds up comments from assembly members regarding "$33-million subsidy for Bruce Ratner’s still-unapproved Atlantic Yards project":
Roger Green (D-Prospect Heights) “Ratner gave a good presentation. The questions are the same — scale, size and traffic — but we have to think about the community benefits.”Joan Millman (D-Brooklyn Heights) “They were kind of between a rock and hard place,” a spokesman said. “This is funding that she and a lot of residents have been fighting for a long time ... I don’t know why the Ratner money was put there ... [Millman] was the only person who spoke out on the floor against the appropriation.”
