And the Doctor is Off! (A Wrap Up)
The Wonkster's wrap-up of reaction to Deputy Mayor Dan Doctoroff's departure begins with NYC bloggers, none of whom had anything positive to say about the City Planning Czar, unless you include the fact that Deputy Dan finally admitted that Atlantic Yards should have gone through ULURP:
Reaction from bloggers has been decidedly unfavorable for Bloomberg’s right hand man. OnNYTurf says “good riddance,” and Queens Crap thinks it is a “truly great day for the City of New York.” The Neighborhood Retail Alliance is also happy to see him go, and criticizes his “disdain for the small and minority businesses” also calling into question his relationship with the Related Companies, a major developer. And after Doctoroff’s revelation to The Real Estate that he thinks maybe the Atlantic Yards project should have gone through the city’s land use process, the Atlantic Yards Report, dedicated to “watchdogging” the project, simply says he’s finally “admitted” the fact.
