He said something like: as a City Planner I can tell you that you are wrong about... (whatever it was she was wrong about). <br /><br />Then McWater said that it was ironic to hear this criticism coming from the guy who built Red Square which has seven chain store retailers.<br /><br />Rosen tried to defend himself, but there was so much shouting about the shouting that he had trouble getting a word in. I heard him because I was right behind him, listening carefully. He said: It was a mistake to have built Red Square. It never should have happened.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362859175287085919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-54888628435956297532010-06-17T23:14:32.639-04:002010-06-17T23:14:32.639-04:00I know!

They have been there too long and have to much self-interest and belief in their own "power."<br /><br />They are both obnoxious and belittling. Just like the neighborhood the board needs fresh blood. <br /><br />Contact Scott Stringer. Complain about these biddiesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
