Why do I have a feeling NYC and their clueless bureaucrats are going to war against our parks?
Yankee Stadium killed Mullaly Park- with broken promises for quick replacements.
The endless construction of the water filtration plant in Van Cortlandt Park killed another section of that park.
The contaminated soil in Harris Field, etc.,etc. Are we still the Borough of Parks?
