Change at the Top in Albany Won’t Change Brooklyn Projects
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Editorial
By Dennis Holt
The Eagle's Dennis Holt doesn't think that a change of pace in Albany will have any effect on the two most controversial development projects in Brooklyn.
Spitzer has publicly and privately confirmed his strong support for Brooklyn Bridge Park and, if anything, may well encourage the planners, designers and builders to speed things up.
The same kind of support for the Atlantic Yards plan can also be expected from Spitzer and through him to the new people at ESDC. He has already expressed his concern about attempts to limit the state’s ability to employ eminent domain when necessary. ...
So yesterday’s election may signal a sea change politically in New York, but it looks very much like business as usual here in Brooklyn.
