[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Giant project was blocked because wealthy people on Newark Street didn't want more traffic. BOTTOM LINE. A very small handful of rich, connected folks blocked the project. They wrap themselves in the mantle of greenish, liberal, progressive mantle, but they are just rich people trying to keep the status quo. Blocking relatively affordable housing, expanded retail and opportunity. I live in the neighborhood. I am a greenish liberal too. But all this talk about concerns about design is bull. They used design to block progress. [/quote] This sounds just like how the proponents of building Klingle Parkway tried to demonize the local residents who wanted parkland -- a "small, handful of rich connected folks." I smell a stinking red herring intended to distract from the real issues.[/quote]
