FCR announces plans to demolish Ward Bakery
Brooklyn Speaks posted Forest City Ratner's press release concerning the demolition of the Ward Bakery building along with this statement:
Note that while FCR is claiming their demolition strategy is "sustainable", the greenest buildings are those that are already built, and a truly sustainable strategy would reuse the Ward Bakery and other historic buildings in the footprint. And there is nothing sustainable about demolishing buildings to create enormous parking lots that will generate traffic and blight the surrounding neighborhoods.
