Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn unloads the questions of Brooklyn Paper's man on the street interview:
We think a fairer question might have included the point that the $300 million naming-rights' payday for the publicly-funded arena goes directly to the developer, Forest City Ratner, who doesn't even own the arena and would rent it with a $1.00 99-year lease, if it is ever built. We readily admit that there is not much good for the public coming out of this private naming-rights deal. We also think that were the questions less leading, and solely about those financial issues, the men on the street would have given similar answers.
