Bruce’s Response:
NYDIA OPPOSES HOUSING & JOBS AT BROADWAY TRIANGLE PROJECT
After little public involvement in the 4-year old political battle over the redevelopment project called Broadway Triangle, a recently passed project that will bring jobs and 800 affordable housing units to NY 12, Nydia Velazquez has come out from the back rooms to express her opposition to forthcoming neighborhood improvements.
“This has been an extended, ugly battle over the spoils of a project that will ultimately bring jobs, housing and hope to North Brooklyn, ” Bruce Hirschfeld noted. “Our Congresswoman has been working the back rooms rather than working for the benefit of her constituents. More concerned with who gets the contracts and which supporters get rewards than in funding new jobs, building affordable homes and stimulating civic improvement for Williamsburg, Nydia once again demonstrates her utter lack of concern for the people of her district.”
