City is upgrading its 911 system for $1.5B
Staten Island Advance
By John Annese
If you've ever wondered how the City can possibly be MetroTech's largest tenant, check out the latest City program to call Forest City Ratner's high-rise office park home:
Police will move into a new high-tech 911 call center at Brooklyn's MetroTech Center by March 2008, and the center will be fully up and running, with fire and EMS personnel, by March 2009, he added.
NoLandGrab: BTW, the State of NY became Atlantic Center's largest tenant when the Department of Motor Vehicles moved into the suburban-style mall.
When Ratner can't fill his mega-projects with private tenants, government agencies come to the rescue.
