There are those in the Heights that think they own it. Hank Guttman and Peter Askanoszy are two of them. They have lied to us on BBP and they continue to lie as they sit on the Brooklyn Public Library board. This is real estate insider trading at its worst. It sells and destroys our public property on the cheap and enriches politically connected real-estate people like David Kramer and Johnathan Marvel. Ken Thompson needs to investigate this before its too late.
