^ That parking for the stadium isn't going anywhere. The new stadium was built on old Shea parking, right next to Willets Point. There really is no other location in the immediate area that needs the redevelopment. Willets Point is long overdue for development, its amazing that it went so long without being integrated into the city system (there isn't even plumbing in some cases). And the city desperately needs the new housing that will be built there - something you aren't going to build in the middle of the park.
