Ooh - the NY Times reports that the fire marshals brought in a golden retriever to investigate the Greenpoint Terminal Market's charred remains to see if there were any accelerants used. Apparently Bucca, named after a firefighter lost on September 11, sits when he smells accelerants, but the FDNY did not reveal whether Bucca was doing any sitting. And yesterday, the Daily News reported that site owner Joshua Guttman is already selling various pieces of the remains. For instance, beams are being sold for $1,500 and bricks are also being carted out for 15 cents per lot of ten. The News also says that Guttman yelled at a photographer, "You and the media are making me out to be guilty." Well, not just the media - all the Brooklyn residents who have had run-ins with him, too.
Gothamist on the fire.

With a federal/state/city task force looking into it the guilty party should start to worry. One shold also wonder if Guttman is actually selling off evidence.
Read this from the NYTimes if you want to get informed about Guttman's history with fire.

People like him need to be thrown in jail. How has he managed to get away with it? This is glaring evidence that the system is not set up to protect tenants as long as there's major money to be made by the landlord.
This LL got some balls, he's harassing white tenants with the same tactics used for minority tenants.
The removing the locks on the front doors, breaking elevators and hallway lights.
They should also look into this Scarano architect, he gives all AIA members a bad name and they should sanction him.
But the AIA won't, there's too much money to be made in NYC real estate. Too much money.
