The Week of Amanda Burden



By Eliot Brown

Quote:
West Side Rail Yards — Stephen Ross’ vision for the West Side rail yards is up for review, with a hearing Wednesday. The project has been relatively lacking in the arena of dramatic land-use battles, as most of those complaints were aired when the mayor tried to put a stadium on the site. The community has many a complaint for two middle-income housing projects that accompany the rail yards plan, and there is sure to be a continued push to preserve the High Line in the area. Related, again, is the designated developer, but it hasn't yet signed a contract with the site's owner, the M.T.A., to build.
