Marty Markowitz Must Go

Lucid Culture

Brooklyn Borough President and Atlantic Yards Cheerleader in Chief Marty Markowitz gave folks their money's worth at a free outdoor concert:

Last night at Wingate Field, Markowitz had the nerve to shill for the [Atlantic Yards] project in front of an all-black crowd (ok, there were two white people there) who will be the first to suffer when plastic-and-sheetrock luxury highrises start to pop up in Crown Heights. If he wasn’t so old, one would have thought that he’d just mainlined an ounce of coke. The guy would. Not. Shut. Up. On and on he rambled, kissing the ass of every local politician he could think of, shilling shamelessly for the corporations who sponsor his pet project, summertime outdoor concerts.
