1:12, keep that question in mind until the articles are printed and then you will have your answer
Just what are they going to announce at the press conference? Why would anyone from the press cover this minutae?
Only in New York would people affect ennui when they could be delighted…..people, perspective please!
Only in Brooklyn would so much be made over so little…..people,perspective please!
At about 10:15 a.m., the DUMBO Improvement District sent out the following e-mail:
“Due to the severity of this morning’s storm, flooding across the city and subway delays, today’s press conference for the Pearl Street Triangle has been cancelled.
It is tentatively rescheduled for tomorrow at 12:30pm, but this depends on the Department of Transportation’s ability to respond to the storm. Please expect an e-mail later today to update you on the press conference. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.”
true, 9:22, but it’s the kind of topic that was made for blogging; plus, our office is around the corner so we can’t help but notice every incremental change.
I cant believe how much coverage this blog has given to that dinky triangle.
That triangle is going to be fume-tastic.
