Can we put these people on a raft and push them out to sea?

When the City Council finally tackles the Rikers issue, they should semi-repurpose the facility to include a wing that houses NIMBYs with the combined nonviolent dafty and recidivist stoner populations.

O dear. Shame. This isn't even that big.

Good on the BrooklynPaper ending with this quote. People who oppose this development, and ones like it, are holding this city back.
“It is troubling that board members, who are supposed to represent this community, are so out of touch with the community,” said Ingersoll Houses Tenants Association president Darold Burgess in a statement. “We need affordable housing. We need space for local businesses. We need jobs. This building delivers for us, and is no bigger than other buildings right next door. What’s the problem?” |
^^^^^^^^^
This is looking like a PR stunt. Just to make a point. I guess after the failures to stop other monstrosities. Its a shame that they have such influence. Kinda sucks that DoBro is such a hot bed for these anti-development folks. But I think ultimately it will rise, as there is a process. Good old Deblasio will ensure it'll happen. In general, the zoning needs to increase for many neighborhoods. To provide the parameters and acceptable range to increase density and add the much needed units. This way, the FAR would be higher and wouldn't raise so many questions, even if as-of-right. The bloody irony is that its not that far from other taller towers or as the developmentally challenged would say "Monstrosities out of place with NYC, a skyscraper city". |

Counter protesters are always welcomed. Tons of opposition, like at those Chinatown meetings regarding the jail tower, but hopefully as more become aware of the sham and hacky behavior of the nimbys, that we will see more protesting in favor of housing and growth. I think it comes through education. The more people know about supply and demand, and the relationship towards prices, the better the city will become. The more they realize the lost opportunities, more will be in favor. Like with 80 Flatbush, its a sham. A minor reduction. All of that protesting and all it did was knock the amount of units, by 30. They did harm, nothing positive, no matter the iota of gain they think they had. |
I heard that the handful of complaints from the meeting had more to do with the subway than the building itself.

Hopefully Singletary's common sense will prevail in the later processes, as it did in the 80 Flatbush decision.

Exactly. People have got to start looking at reality, and not just knee-jerking to "no". New buildings and developments are gonna happen, especially in a city like New York. The NIMBYs should focus more on how they happen as opposed to just holding the position that they shouldn't happen. In other words, get a "seat" at the table. Quote:

^Yep. The key here is that despite the negativity of the community group, the developers did not reduce the number of affordable units in the process. Percentage wise, it actually increased with thirty market units lopped off. It's still so substantial the market units will still be more than enough to help with the cost of about a quarter of the units made affordable.
