Public buildings on the mall and public lands.
Reminds me of Robert Moses and the highways on Long Island. His Long Island State Park Commission had an opportunity to buy enough land to plan for light rail in the future. He refused to consider it, and now the region suffers for it.
It was all about cars for Moses. Drump is all about the luxury real estate deal.
Today there’s no mountain of money large enough to buy the land necessary to improve Long Island public transit on the North Shore.
And once public lands are sold, they’re gone. Once public buildings are sold, they’ll be leased back to us.
Plunder and congress does nothing.
