Condemned for Christmas

Freddy's Brooklyn Roundhouse

condemned4.gifA Christmas Carol as told by the original Prospect Heights Action Carolers.

It's been three years since Bruce Ratner unveiled his super-tall, very wide and extremely dense landgrabbing Atlantic Yards project.

Back in the day, when local residents were still trying to figure out what this project meant for Brooklyn, they did the one thing that made sense at the time... caroling!

Airing now on freddysbrooklynroundhouse.org:

What did Marty Markowitz give Bruce Ratner for Christmas? Brooklyn! Celebrate the Christmas season with the Prospect Heights Action Carolers, as they try to cheer up their neighbors who are having their homes condemned for Christmas by politicians in collusion with a powerful developer. 60 families and 13 businesses face government evictions this season for the benefit of one well connected billionaire.
