Sliwa & Sharpton? Ratner’s really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
10:17 – wow.. nice + bitter, huh? well, McCarren just got an additional 100 trees. Poor you having to hear about how someone might enjoy being near that park. Dreadful, really.
Norman Oder — if a tree falls in a forest….
God bless Norman Oder. He’s relentless. Ratner must shake his fist at the sky every time he hears his name.
sounds like an exciting line-up, no? While Sharpton will have his supporters, Sliwa’s name seems to keep them away. Why did they ask Sliwa?
Did you have to post that article about the guy moving to Wiliamsburg and it’s “minature central park”? I thought I could have a peaceful day and you just ruined it.
The fact that Ratner needs to put on a dog and pony show with career hacks like Sliwa and Sharpton is a bad sign for the project.
