It came from the Blogosphere...
Clinton Hill Blog, Me and the Markowitz
"Lesterhead" stumbled on a street fair with lots of people and food, so it was really random that she ran into Borough President Marty Markowtiz.
NoLandGrab: Lucky for Lesterhead that Marty didn't know her true feelings about Atlantic Yards, since he's been a little thin-skinned as of late on the topic.
Brooklyn Streets, Carroll Gardens, Congestion Pricing CA$H
Atlantic Yards is the posterchild for ramming programs and projects down the community's throat:
You heard it hear weeks ago. Missing the "deadline" for federal congestion pricing money did not cost us a cent.
It cost Bloomberg a little bit of ego. That is all.
I am hopeful that we will get a good plan out of this, and fairly certain it will be a better plan than the one Bloomie tried to ram down our collective throat, a la Atlantic Yards.
not another fcking blog!, hello, brit in brooklyn reader
Tracy Collins welcomes *Brit in Brooklyn readers and recounts the day they first met:
my first encounter with Adrian (BIB blogger) was a random meeting on the corner of carlton avenue and dean street, while we were both out taking photos of the footprint of the proposed Atlantic Yards development. we'd known of each other via "the internets", but had never met face-to-face. he's a nice chap. someone should interview him someday. i'm betting he has more than a few interesting tales to tell.
