The community board meeting from last week...

Basically, they think that there should be federal funding for the Penn Station project, so there would be no need for the added density around Penn to pay for it. Nothing more than a brainstorming session to try and find ways or excuses to stop it. This is why I dislike any community board input, advisory though it may be. Just a formal meeting for NIMBYs. At this time, when sources of funding are so scarce for anything, they want to hang their hat on that. One idiot wants to use Covid as an excuse not to build the office towers.
