The Masses and the Mayor Fight the Good Fights; Also, Staten Island Is Radioactive
The Real Estate Observer links yesterday's NY Times article about BrooklynSpeaks:
What kind of real estate power does the average New Yorker wield? Over in Brooklyn, citizen groups have banded together to "create room for negotiation" with Forest City Ratner.
